An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Style A Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Meet Nero Wolfe, the 1936 Herbert J. Biberman detective murder mystery melodrama (based on the novel by Rex Stout) starring Edward Arnold (in the title role as Nero Wolfe), Lionel Stander (as Archie Goodwin), Joan Perry, Victor Jory, Dennie Moore, John Qualen (as Olaf, who replaces Fritz from the books!), Rita Hayworth (super young, billed as "Rita Cansino"), and Martha Tibbetts. Note that Rex Stout started writing the super popular Nero Wolfe detective novels in 1934, and in 1936, this movie was made, starring Edward Arnold in the title role. The following year, "The League of Frightened Men" was made with Walter Connolly taking over the part. But no more sequels were made, perhaps because Rex Stout was not happy with the movies, or perhaps there was another reason. In the 1970s, there was an Italian TV series, and someday someone will do justice to this wonderful series of books in a movie or TV adaptation! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
