An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 22" x 28") (Learn More) The Explosive Generation, the 1961 Buzz Kulik high school teen sex education melodrama ("Never Has Youth Gone On Such A Rampage... Never Has A Motion Picture Gone So Far In Telling Their Raging Story!"; "'They had the doctor come over. I didn't even let him come near me!'"; "They're kids with grown-up ideas and grown-up urges...and sometimes they may go too far!"; "'We'll get married after college... it's not such a long time...'"; "They look like kids, but they want love like adults!"; "THIS is the screen's boldest look at 'The Explosive Generation'") starring William Shatner, Patty McCormack (billed as "Patricia McCormack"), Lee Kinsolving, Billy Gray ("as Bobby Herman, Jr."), Virginia Field, Steve Dunne, Edward Platt, and Beau Bridges. Note that William Shatner had made an impression in The Brothers Karamazov in 1958, but his career did not take off afterwards, and starring in this low budget movie did not do much to help his career. He seemed destined for a long career on television (he was on many classic shows including "The Twilight Zone" and "Dr. Kildare"), but then, in 1966, he was cast as Captain James T. Kirk on Star Trek, and the rest, as they say, is history! 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! Most half-sheet posters were folded once horizontally and once vertically right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded copy of most half-sheets, especially from before 1970! Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
