Auction History Result 5t0414 DATE WITH THE FALCON 6sh 1941 art of detective George Sanders & Wendy Barrie, very rare! Date Sold 1/16/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Style A Six-Sheet Movie Poster (6sh; measures 81" x 81" [206 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) A Date with the Falcon, the 1941 Irving Reis detective mystery crime thriller ("Based upon the character created by Michael Arlen") starring George Sanders (in the title role as The Falcon), Wendy Barrie, James Gleason, Allen Jenkins, Mona Maris, and Hans Conried (in an early uncredited role). Note that this is one of four movies that starred George Sanders as The Falcon. After the fourth movie, the role of The Falcon was passed from George Sanders (who had previously played "The Saint" in a series of movies, and who apparently had tired of this role, and wanted to leave) to Tom Conway (they played brothers in the movie and in real life they were brothers!; in a clever move, the script for that movie, "The Falcon's Brother" had George Sanders' character killed, and his brother, played by Tom Conway, shows up and solves his murder, and becomes the "new" Falcon; and Conway went on to make a total of twelve Falcon movies).
