A 1956 Re-Release Theatrical Unfolded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Angels with Dirty Faces, the classic 1938 Michael Curtiz (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) romantic crime murder thriller melodrama (in this movie, quintessential tough guy Cagney is a hero to the Dead End Kids, and at the end his childhood pal, now a priest, asks him to be a coward as he is led to the electric chair to help keep those kids from following in his footsteps; "A story... mighty with the clash of men! A picture... unforgettable in its greatness!"; "Sensational in it's dramatic impact!"; "From a Story by Rowland Brown") starring James Cagney (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film; as Rocky Sullivan), Pat O'Brien (as Father Jerry Connolly), The Dead End Kids (Leo Gorcey [as Bim], Billy Halop [as Soapy], Huntz Hall [as Crab], Bobby Jordan, Gabriel Dell, Bernard Punsly), Humphrey Bogart (as James Frazier), Ann Sheridan (as Laury Ferguson), George Bancroft, and Frankie Burke (as the young Rocky; he was an unknown 17 year-old newsboy when he was discovered to play the young James Cagney, because he had an uncanny resemblance to young James Cagney!) 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 when this classic movie was re-released by Warner Bros. in 1948, they used a different bland image on the insert for that re-release. But when the rights were sold to Dominant in 1956, they very wisely used the exact same image on their 1956 re-release insert that was on the original 1938 Warner Bros. insert (except for less color of course). But since that original 1938 insert auctions for many, many thousands of dollars (and is impossible to find), this insert is a wonderful alternative to that poster, and hopefully at a fraction of the price! Note that this re-release insert is quite rare - we have only auctioned it three times before! Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has a partial horizontal crease at left (see our image). There are a few creases and faint smudges around the edges but otherwise it is in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
