The Bad and the Beautiful, the classic 1953 Vincente Minnelli behind-the-scenes-in-Hollywood California expose romantic betrayal melodrama ("The picture that's headed for the '10 Best' lists!"; "Based on a story by George Bradshaw"; "Screen Play by Charles Schnee"; very loosely based on the life of Val Lewton, and produced by John Houseman) starring Lana Turner, Kirk Douglas (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), Walter Pidgeon, Dick Powell, Barry Sullivan, Gloria Grahame (winner of the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Gilbert Roland, Leo G. Carroll, Vanessa Brown, Elaine Stewart, Francis X. Bushman, and Paul Stewart. Note that this movie won five Academy Awards and many people consider it one of the finest movies about making movies ever made!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good to very good. The poster has light creases mainly along portions of the center horizontal fold and center crossfold (where there is some tiny separation and paper loss). There are tiny pinholes in the corners and there is tiny separation and paper loss at the right edge of the center horizontal fold. There are some tape stains and areas of surface paper loss (and some partial surface paper loss) on back of the edges, but those areas have no effect on the front. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and while it could certainly be displayed as is, after a pretty simple paperbacking the poster will look great!
