HALLS OF MONTEZUMA (1950) 29353 U.S. Marines Themed Movie Poster

Original U.S. One-Sheet Poster (27x41) Linen Backed Very Fine Condition

20th Century Fox Original U.S. One-Sheet Poster (27x41), linen-backed, for the Lewis Milestone directed war movie HALLS OF MONTEZUMA (1950). The war had been over for four years when Fox released this star studded drama. Richard Widmark, Jack Palance, Reginald Garadiner, Robert Wagner, Karl Malden, Richard Boone, Jack Webb, Neville Brand, Martin Milner, Skip Homeier, Edward Binns and Philip Ahn are among the stellar cast. The film was directed by Lewis Milestone and filmed at Camp Pendleton, California. This would be Richard Boone's very first film role. Marines take an island in the Pacific. The movie was released in January of 1951. This is a real "give 'em hell" war movie, and it would be the last WW2 film to be directed by Milestone. A woman's face looms large on the poster, and, indeed, Anne Baxter was originally slated for the film, but she did not participate. Indeed, there are no significant roles for women in the film. The poster is colorful, and this is a good example of the movie-postery look from Fox at the point where their one-sheets are mostly printed by offset. MovieArt Original Film Posters in Austin, Texas guarantees this poster to be authentic. MovieArt Austin does not sell reproductions.
