Note that this movie had an extremely limited U.S. subtitled release from UMPO in 1957 as "The Light Across the Street" and " Female and the Flesh" (perhaps solely in major cities at "arthouse" theaters). It was re-released in the U.S. in 1960 under the title of "Female and the Flesh" with English dubbing, and with all new posters, and these posters are often mistakenly sold as being from the first U.S. release. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the back cover of this pressbook advertises a 5 ft. tall standee of Brigitte Bardot (with or without color!). We wonder if any of these still exist! Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of the pressbook, plus an image of a two-page spread from inside of the pressbook (we do NOT picture any supplements or heralds, if there are any included with this pressbook), and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut! Condition: good, NO CUTS. Learn More about condition grades
