He is a married schoolmaster."; "all of 16...and she knew all the ways to destroy a man..."; "This is the way she had planned it...This is the way she would trap him."; "He thought of her as a child. She was one of the youngest students in his class."; "The wife who knew his weakness and never let him forget it."; "It was something else. Something about an older, married man that stirred her. And then it was hard to believe that she was only sixteen..."; "Based on an original novel by James Barlow"; "Winner Special Award Venice Film Festival 1962") starring Laurence Olivier, Simone Signoret, Sarah Miles (billed as "introducing the exciting new star Sarah Miles"; in her first role), Terence Stamp ("as Mitchell"), and Hugh Griffith

Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this British quad, which is a "country of origin" poster for this English movie! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair to good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had staining in the lower left vertical fold and in the background next to it at lower left. It had tiny bits of paper loss on parts of the other folds and surface paper loss in Olivier's hair by his ear at upper right. Overall, the poster was in fair condition prior to paperbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did little restoration to the defects described above.
