An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked British Quad Movie Poster (BQ; Quad Crown; measures 30" x 40" [76 x 102 cm]) (Learn More) Forever Amber, the 1947 Otto Preminger historical medieval England romantic melodrama (produced by Darryl F. Zanuck; "From the novel by Kathleen Winsor"; "Screen Play by Philip Dunne & Ring Lardner, Jr."; set in 1660 England, about a country girl who literally sleeps her way to nobility, but sacrifices much, including her true love, in the process) starring Linda Darnell (in the title role "as Amber"), Cornel Wilde ("as Bruce Carlton"), Richard Greene ("as Lord Almsbury"), George Sanders ("as King Charles II"), Glenn Langan, Richard Haydn, Jessica Tandy, Anne Revere, and John Russell. Note that this novel was very controversial when it was published, and it was thought at first to be unfilmable, and the Breen office objected to many elements of the movie, and Fox made many changes to the film because of that. Also note that Peggy Cummins was originally cast in the lead role, and she was brought from England to the U.S. specifically for this movie. But when the movie was delayed over the censorship objections, it was decided that Cummins was not well enough known in America, and Linda Darnell was recast in her place.
