Note that it is likely this movie was made with this odd "love triangle" (where one of the principals was dead!), no doubt to help women who had lost their husbands or boyfriends in World War II to not feel so guilty about finding a new love afterwards!

Important Added Info: Note that the one-sheet says "AN MGM MASTERPIECE REPRINT" in the bottom right. This was a terminology used by MGM at this time for some re-releases, and it has caused some collectors to be confused! This one-sheet is the original poster from the 1955 re-release of this movie, and is NOT a "reprint"! Condition: good to very good. There is some separation at each crossfold (repaired with tape from the back at bottom). There is some writing on the back of the poster that bleeds through to the front in the credits at bottom.
