A 1948 Re-Release Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More)

The Man Who Reclaimed His Head, the 1934 Edward Ludwig World War I (WWI) romantic love triangle author pacifism melodrama ("From the exciting play by Jean Bart"; an unusual story set just before World War I began, about a man who is hired by an industrialist to write anti-war literature, but he doesn't realize that the only reason the industrialist wants to publish his writing is so that he can keep selling munitions to both sides, and when the author learns he was betrayed, he enlists, but he learns that the industrialist has stolen his girlfriend, and he goes AWOL and kills the man, "to reclaim his head"!) starring Claude Rains ("'The Invisible Man'"), Joan Bennett, Lionel Atwill, Juanita Quigley (billed as "Baby Jane"), Henry O'Neill, Henry Armetta, Lloyd Hughes, Bessie Barriscale, and Carol Coombe. Note that Claude Rains had just had major success in "The Invisible Man" shortly before this movie was released, and given that this was an unusual movie with a difficult-to-sell subject matter, Rains was billed as "Claude Rains 'The Invisible Man'", probably in the hopes that theatergoers might imagine this was a horror movie!
