Auction History Result 9h396 ANGELS OF DARKNESS Belgian '56 Donne Proibite, Anthony Quinn, Linda Darnell! Date Sold 2/22/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Belgian Movie Poster (measures 14 1/4" x 21 1/2" [36 x 55 cm]) (Learn More) Donne Proibite (released in the U.S in 1956 as "Angels of Darkness" and as "Forbidden Women"), the 1954 Giuseppe Amato Italian prostitution melodrama ("Their trade was LOVE!"; "Daughters of the joy... Sisters in the sin!"; "Franca"; "Vally"; "Lola"; about a new law being passed in Rome closing brothels, and the movie follows the lives of several of the girls who worked there, and how they must try to find alternate ways of surviving) starring Linda Darnell, Anthony Quinn, Valentina Cortese, Lea Padovani, and Giulietta Masina. Note that Linda Darnell had been a major sexy star of the 1940s, but her career was slowing drastically by this time, and she accepted a relatively small role in this Italian movie (but for the American release, she was top billed!). After this movie, she made one more Italian movie and then a bunch of mostly TV appearances, after which she retired. Finally, note that U.S. posters were all originally printed with "Angels of Darkness" as the title, but some good number were overprinted with the alternate title of "Forbidden Women" (no doubt because that was more lurid). If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. 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 was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. The bottom title area has been overprinted and there is paper loss in the upper left corner of the poster. There are some tape repairs on the back of the left of the top edge of the poster.
