An Original 1951 (from the first release of this movie in Germany) Vintage German Film Program (measures 7 1/4" x 10 1/2"; 4 pages) (Learn More) Senza Pieta (released in the U.S. in 1949 as "Without Pity"), the 1948 Alberto Lattuada Italian racial prejudice military romantic melodrama ("The Story of a Negro G.I. and a Girl Campfollower!"; "As Featured in National Magazines"; "A vital challenge, but he accepted it boldly!"; "Dynamic! Realistic! Powerful!"; written by Federico Fellini; about the true story of black American G.I.s who were stationed in Italy at the end of World War II, and who refused to return to the U.S. due to their far better treatment in Italy where there was not the same racial prejudice as in the U.S., and they would go AWOL, and often have interracial romances with Italian girls) starring Carla Del Poggio, John Kitzmiller, Pierre Claude, Giulietta Masina, and Folco Lulli. Note that Alberto Lattuada was one of the first of the Italian neo-realists, and this is apparently an extremely realistic depiction of the real life situation described, and its interracial romance scenes caused it to receive very limited distribution in the United States! Note that John Kitzmiller was a black African American who served in Italy in World War II, and he decided to stay there after the war, and he appeared in around 50 Italian movies!

Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of all the pages of this 4-page program (we did this by opening it and laying it flat and photographing the front and back cover together, and the interior two pages together). This way, you see the entire program, and can well determine the exact condition of it from our super-sized image. But of course this means that the front cover appears in the top right of our image, but normally, the program would be folded down the center and you would view the cover by itself (and it will be sent folded as was originally intended). Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
