The day the clocks stopped turning and the world stood still..."; "Ibanez' unforgettable story sweeping you from the broad pampas of the Argentine to the boulevards of Paris, telling of Julio, with his fast cars and sleek women, of Marguerite, who tried to divide her love, and of Marcelo, who ran from one war to be caught by another. Telling of Madariaga, who built a Paradise and of Karl, who destroyed it, of Etienne, who knew the depths of man's depravity and Chi-Chi, who believed only in man's good. It tells of Elena, arrogant in her pride and Luisa, humble in her sorrow. It tells of Heinrich, drunk with the power that loosed the Four Horsemen on a helpless world."; "Now and then there is a motion picture for which the world is 'timeless'... This is one, for it tells a story that is big in today's world... It is fraught with the truth and terror, the loves and hopes of now... It is peopled with men who are heroic, women who are alluring... This is what happens in their hearts whether the place is Argentina or Paris... For this is all humankind when conflict comes and the clock stands still."; "Based on the novel by Vicente Blasco Ibanez"; "screen play by Robert Ardrey") starring Glenn Ford, Ingrid Thulin, Charles Boyer, Lee J. Cobb, Paul Henreid, Paul Lukas, Yvette Mimieux, and Karlheinz Bohm (billed as "Karl Boehm") NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that pressbooks were prepared prior to a movie being released. Often, changes would be made in a movie advertising campaign (billing of actors, different images, etc.), and the theaters would print up special supplements that they would send out with the pressbooks that had already been printed. These supplements are very rare, far more rare than the pressbooks themselves! Some pressbooks would have no supplements, some would have one, and some would have several. Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of the pressbook, plus an image of any supplements or heralds (if there are any included with this pressbook), but of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are selling (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut! Condition: fair. There are brown water stains in the last few pages of the pressbook (it is worst on the back cover), but the pressbook is uncut! Learn More about condition grades
