Its Drama blisters the screen!"; "Sensational?... No, it's dynamite!"; "Hate is like a loaded gun!"; "Murder without motive!"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; based on the novel 'The Brick Foxhole' by Richard Brooks; very daring for its day; about a serviceman who while on leave kills a Jewish man due to bigotry; in the original source novel, the man who is killed was homosexual, but that was TOO much for Hollywood in 1947, and given that World War II was fresh on people's minds, changing the victim to a Jewish person made a lot of sense!) starring Robert Young, Robert Mitchum, Robert Ryan (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film), Gloria Grahame (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Paul Kelly, Sam Levene, George Cooper, Steve Brodie, and Marlo Dwyer 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 is from the mid 1960s, and it is very deceptive, in our view, because they seemed to have turned this movie into an FBI murder thriller, solely starring Robert Mitchum, who is not in his Army uniform, completely ignoring the actual plot of the movie! Also note that this Italian two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
