Important Added Info: Note that one might not think that a classic film noir movie would have a one-sheet with a pink background, but that is what Paramount chose for this poster. We have auctioned four examples of this poster in the last 9 years, and each of those auctioned for between $4,200 and $4,700, so obviously, collectors don't mind the pink background, and instead focus on what a truly wonderful movie this is!
