Note that Cary Grant had announced his retirement from movies in 1953, but he was lured out of retirement by Hitchcock to make this one. Also note that Jessie Royce Landis, who had played Grant's mother in "North by Northwest", this time played his potential mother-in-law, and yet, she was only eight years older than Grant, who had aged very well!

Important Added Info: Note that we have sold photobustas from the first release of this movie in Italy, but the first release Italian one-panel are incredibly rare. The poster offered here is from a re-release and while it is not dated, it does match the 1964 re-release Italian 2p posters, and we feel it is likely from 1964. Condition: good. The poster is fragile and has darkened on the folds, and there is separation and tiny paper loss on parts of the folds. But certainly, once the poster is linenbacked, it will display great!
