An Original 1941 Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Stars Look Down, the 1940 (released in the U.S. in 1941) Carol Reed English political mining melodrama ("A.J. Cronin's Novel on the Screen!"; "Adapted from the novel by A.J. Cronin"; "By A.J. Cronin author of 'The Citadel'"; about an Welsh mining town) starring Margaret Lockwood, Michael Redgrave (in his fourth movie role!), Emlyn Williams, Edward Rigby, Nancy Price, and Olga Lindo. Note that A.J. Cronin was a doctor who had health problems in 1930. He wrote a book called "Hatter's Castle" in 1931, and it was so successful that he stopped practicing medicine and wrote a series of books, all centering around doctors, including "The Citadel" and "Keys of the Kingdom", all of which were made into movies! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an original one-sheet for this movie from the first U.S. release in 1941. When Film Classics re-distributed it in 1945, in addition to making new re-release one-sheets, they also took some original one-sheets and glued a snipe over the MGM credit at bottom left that reads "FILM CLASSICS, INC.". But this definitely IS the first release U.S. one-sheet from MGM, and any restorer (or talented amateur) could easily remove the snipe without backing the poster. The same people who glued on the snipe also handwrote a re-release NSS number in pencil at bottom right, but that could be easily erased. Condition: good to very good. There is a snipe at lower left that ripples the poster (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
