An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded British Quad Movie Poster (measures approximately 30" x 40") (Learn More) Uncle Silas (released in the U.S. in 1951 as "The Inheritance"), the 1947 Charles Frank English toxic family relationship inheritance melodrama (about a teen girl whose father dies, and she becomes the ward of her creepy uncle, and she soon suspects that he, in league with her former creepy governess, and her even creepier cousin, are plotting to kill her so they can have her father's inheritance before she comes of age) starring Jean Simmons ("Jean Simmons The New Star as Caroline Niece and Ward of Uncle Silas"), Katina Paxinou, Derrick De Marney (in the title role as Uncle Silas), Derek Bond, Esmond Knight, Sophie Stewart, and Manning Whiley. Note that Jean Simmons had first been noticed as a teenager in a child role in "Great Expectations", and she also had a significant role in "Black Narcissus", which led to her starring role in this movie (where she was billed on some posters as "The New Star"). Also note that this movie was released in the U.S. in a cut version under the title of "The Inheritance", and it has never been re-released in its original version to U.S. audiences, and we hope that oversight will be corrected!

Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this English movie! Condition: good. Note that there are many creases throughout the poster. There was a theater snipe glued over the top credits area, but it is almost completely detached, without harming the area underneath. This poster is an ideal candidate for linenbacking, after which, it will look great! Learn More about condition grades
