 | 16. | Williams, Tennessee The Fugitive Kind Poster and Suddenly Last Summer Lobby Card Hollywood United Artists 1960 Poster Poster An original folded half-sheet poster for the film adaptation of Tennessee Williams's play "Orpheus Descending." The film had a powerful cast that included Marlon Brando, Anna Magnani & Joanne Woodward but the film failed to connect with both audiences and critics alike. Printed in full color with nice large portraits of the cast. The film was directed by Sidney Lumet and from all accounts was a very difficult and troubled production. Fine.

Probably the film is best remembered for the Liz Taylor's white bathing suit than for anything else. Some tack holes and minor staining to the borders. Vg. Sold as a collection only.
