Note that this was a very serious rather somber play by Terence Rattigan, and Burt Lancaster and his partners bought the rights to make a movie of it, and when the movie was released, they hedged their bets by presenting the movie as though it centered on some kind of sleazy romance between Lancaster and Hayworth!

Important Added Info: Note that the theater that used this item blacked over the portion of the tagline that read "She excited me whenever she walked into a room!"! Apparently, this was just "too much" for that particular theater in those much more innocent times! Depending on how you look at it, this is either a major detraction or a kind of fun addition to the item! Condition: fair. There is black censor paint over the tagline at upper left and there is a censor snipe in the upper left corner of the poster. There is marker writing at lower right and there are several tears along the foldlines and edges. There are creases and smudges throughout the poster. Learn More about condition grades
