Auction History Result 8p412 PLAYGIRL AFTER DARK French 1p '60 sexy Jayne Mansfield is Too Hot to Handle, Hage art! Date Sold 1/18/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded French One-Panel "Grande" Movie Poster (1p; measures 45 3/4" x 63" [116 x 160 cm]) (Learn More) Too Hot to Handle (released in the U.S. in 1962 as "Playgirl After Dark"), the 1960 Terence Young English sexploitation exotic dancer stripper bad girl crime thriller ("It strips the secrets from the intimate key clubs!"; "The girls who rock the night as tease queens!"; "The sizzler you read about in Playboy Magazine!"; "In the naked glare of the Key Clubs... A glamorous, amorous girl world for pleasure hunters!") starring Jayne Mansfield, Leo Glenn, Karlheinz Bohm (billed as "Carl Boehm"), Christopher Lee, Kai Fischer, and Danik Patisson (billed as "introducing Danik Patisson"). Note that this movie was a gritty English crime thriller, but when it was released in the U.S., the U.S. distributor wisely seized on what they believed to be the film's greatest asset, namely Jayne Mansfield's body, and they re-named it "Playgirl After Dark", and put a large near-naked image of Mansfield on the posters, and made it look like it was some kind of sex film that revolved around her (I would highly doubt that that was not a wise move on their part!). Oddly, when the film was re-released in the 1960s, the original English title of "Too Hot To Handle" was used. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Gerard Hage Condition: good. There is much tattering and separation along the foldlines with several tape repairs on the back. It appears that a small amount may have been trimmed from the left edge of the poster.
