Miss Sadie Thompson, the 1953 Curtis Bernhardt 3-D (3D; 3-Dimension) South-Seas romantic prostitute-and-preacher musical ("Rita turns it on!!!"; "Rita turns it loose!!!"; "It's Rita Hayworth and men! Men! Men! In 3-D"; "It's Rita on the prowl!"; "Rita in 3D!"; "Songs your mother never taught you!"; "The Heat Is On - On The Way!"; "The Sin-Chaser - The Dame Chaser!"; "Entertainment Is Her Business!"; "Spontaneous Combustion!"; "She's the gal with a little something extra for the boys!"; "Based on a story by W. Somerset Maugham") starring Rita Hayworth (in the title role as Sadie Thompson), Jose Ferrer, Aldo Ray, Russell Collins, Diosa Costello, Charles Bronson (in his second credited movie role!), and Henry Slate. Note that there was an silent version of this movie in 1928 under the title "Sadie Thompson", starring Gloria Swanson and Lionel Barrymore, and a sound version of this movie, under the title "Rain" in 1932, starring Joan Crawford, and Walter Huston! Also note that this movie was filmed in Hawaii on Kauhi Hanelei Pier, Lamahai Beach, Coco Palms, Kalapaks, and the former Charles Rice home.

Important Added Info: Note that this is 1 of 18 great two-page full-color trade ads taken out of 1950s Kinematograph Weekly English trade magazines. Studios would run these elaborate 2-page ads in issues of this magazine, and they often had images not found on any of the regular movie posters (either English or U.S.). This 2-page trade ad has been removed from the June 3, 1954 issue of this magazine, and it will look incredible displayed on the new owner's wall. The back of those two pages have text or ads for other movies from that time, and we have pictured those back pages (see our images), but of course, the primary interest to bidders is the great two-page color ad, which measures 11" x 17".

Condition: very good. There is tiny paper loss where the staples were.
