An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) The Left Hand of God, the 1955 Edward Dmytryk religious melodrama ("Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow..."; "He profaned the cloth he wore! She fought against a forbidden relationship! It happened in the hidden valleys of China."; "The provocative best-seller that rocked the world with its daring is on the screen!"; "The strangest covenant between God and man ever made!"; "Based on the Novel 'The Left Hand of God' by William E. Barrett"; "Screen play by Alfred Hayes"; about an American priest in a small Asian village; he seeks to save them from destruction from a warlord, and a beautiful local woman is romantically attracted to the priest, but she thinks that is forbidden; ultimately, [spoiler alert!] Bogart is revealed to be a pilot who assumed the identity of a dead priest) starring Humphrey Bogart, Gene Tierney, Lee J. Cobb (billed as "also starring Lee J. Cobb"), Agnes Moorehead (billed as "with Agnes Moorehead"), E.G. Marshall, Jean Porter, Philip Ahn, Victor Sen Yung, and Benson Fong. Note that Lee J. Cobb played an Asian role with "yellowface" makeup, something that Hollywood films were still doing in the mid 1950s. And the movie's producers cast some well known real Asians in supporting roles, perhaps to give the movie authenticity! 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 this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good to very good. The poster has a few pieces of tape on some edges (not put there for any restoration purpose), creases, and some slight discoloration at lower center.
