An Original 1949 (from the first release of this movie in Italy) Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian Two-Panel (known in Italy as a "4 Fogli") Movie Poster (2p; measures 45 1/4" x 63 1/2" [115 x 161 cm]) (Learn More) Uncle Silas (released in the U.S. in 1951 as "The Inheritance"), the 1947 Charles Frank English toxic family relationship inheritance melodrama (about a teen girl whose father dies, and she becomes the ward of her creepy uncle, and she soon suspects that he, in league with her former creepy governess, and her even creepier cousin, are plotting to kill her so they can have her father's inheritance before she comes of age) starring Jean Simmons ("Jean Simmons The New Star as Caroline Niece and Ward of Uncle Silas"), Katina Paxinou, Derrick De Marney (in the title role as Uncle Silas), Derek Bond, Esmond Knight, Sophie Stewart, and Manning Whiley. Note that Jean Simmons had first been noticed as a teenager in a child role in "Great Expectations", and she also had a significant role in "Black Narcissus", which led to her starring role in this movie (where she was billed on some posters as "The New Star"). Also note that this movie was released in the U.S. in a cut version under the title of "The Inheritance", and it has never been re-released in its original version to U.S. audiences, and we hope that oversight will be corrected! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Franco Fiorenzi Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this Italian poster! Also note that French posters from the first few years after World War II are sometimes not the standard French sizes that became standard in the late 1940s. This was likely because there were still major paper shortages in France right after World War II, and few posters were printed, and most were recycled. This is an extremely rare first release French poster from 1945. Also note that this Italian two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: good to very good.
