Real drama torn from life - - ripped from a woman's soul!"; "...Killers are caught with brute force... by getting the women behind the gangsters behind the guns!"; about a young man in prison who is coming up for parole, but some hardened inmates force him to help them escape, but then, while on the loose, he meets a girl and falls in love, and together, they help the police capture the escaped convicts, which wins him his release) starring Cathy Downs, Paul Langton, Mischa Auer, Roman Bohnen, Marion Kerby, Jane Weeks, and Manuela Callejo. Note that this movie has an extremely similar plot to that of "They Live by Night", the Nicholas Ray classic, except that this movie has a happy ending. "They Live by Night" was released a year later than this movie, but it was made at around the same time, and I don't know why two movies with such similar plots were made at the same time (and whether there was any question of one being sued by the other). This movie seems to be completely forgotten! If anyone knows more about this movie or its similarities to "They Live by Night", please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook (if the back cover is not the poster page, we photographed the interior poster page), 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: very good, NO CUTS. The covers have very slightly darkened but the pressbook is otherwise in nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
