That Women Love!"; based on the novel 'The Lives of a Bengal Lancer' by F. Yeats Brown; about the British in India fighting against impossible odds and demonstrating great bravery; Gary Cooper is a Canadian Scotsman, and most of the movie focuses on the younger soldiers and their older mentors; there is a romantic subplot involving Kathleen Burke, but it is very brief and not memorable, but that is more the fault of the screenwriters than poor Miss Burke) starring Gary Cooper, Franchot Tone, Richard Cromwell, Sir Guy Standing, C. Aubrey Smith, Monte Blue, and Kathleen Burke (who had been the Panther Woman in "Island of Lost Souls" two years earlier!) 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 movie first came out in 1935. We have seen a window card from the first release, and it has a 1934 copyright at bottom left (it is not unusual to be copyrighted the year before). But this window card, which is very similar, has a 1937 copyright, and it was printed that way! Therefore, we think this famous movie was re-released just two years after its first release. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. Prior to paperbacking, the card had been roughly hand folded into thirds. It had smudges and stains on those folds and some scattered in the poster, with tiny surface paper loss in the right of the title. Overall, the card was in good condition prior to paperbacking. Someone had the card backed onto a heavy backing, but had no restoration performed (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
