Dr. Mohsen [Hassan Youssef] loves his nurse Mona [Warda al-Gezaeriya] and wants to marry her but his father Dr. Shakur [Imad Hamdy] objects because he does not want his son to marry a nurse.

This convinces him she is a worthy wife for his son.

The Sin [الحرام] - (Faten Hamama) - (1965)

The Sin [al-haram] (Faten Hamama) (1969) Egyptian stone litho film poster

Pictured is an Egyptian promotional poster designed by Studio Marcel to promote the 1965 96-minute Henry Barakat black-and-white film The Sin [al-haram] starring Faten Hamama with screenplay and dialogue by Sa'd al-Din Wahba and cinematography by Dia El-Mahdy.

This film is beautifully made by one of Egypt's great directors. It is on film critic Ahmad Al-Hadari's 2007 list of the 100 most important Egyptian films; it is based on a novel by Youssef Idris. In a 1984 survey by Al-Fonoon magazine it was voted one of the ten best films in the history of Egyptian cinema. Plot summary from Wikipedia: Azizah [Faten Hamama], a poor peasant, portrays worker oppression in this somber social drama. She gets savagely raped by a guard when she goes into the fields to gather potatoes. She does not reveal what has happened to her husband [Abdallah Gheith] who is suffering from an illness. She conceals the pregnancy and throttles the baby after it is born. She also dies soon thereafter. The migrant workers rally around her memory as she becomes a martyr to the cause of the struggling peasants.

Cast and crew: Faten Hamama, Henry Barakat, Zaki Rostom, Abdallah Gheith, Youssef Idris, Sa'd al-Din Wahba, Ahmed Dia Al-Mahdi, Hassan el Baroudi, Abdel Alim Khattab, Hassan Mustafa, Abdel Salam Mohamed, Dia El-Mahdy, Kawsar al-Asal, Mohammad Shawqi, Kheiri al-Qalyoubi, Lutfi Abdel Hamid, Kawsar Shafiq, Sami Sarhan

Mouths and Rabbits [افواه و ارانب] (Faten Hamama) - (1977)

Mouths and Rabbits [افواه و ارانب] (1977) - (Faten Hamama) Egyptian one-sheet poster

This is a 27" x 39" Egyptian poster designed by Moaty to promote the 1977 105-minute Henry Barakat color film Mouths and Rabbits [afwah wa araneb] based on story, screenplay and dialogue by Samir Abdelazim with cinematography by Wahid Farid. Plot summary: Ne'ma [Faten Hamama] fled her town after her sister [Ragaa Hussein] had arranged a marriage for her to an illiterate man named al-Bastawi [Aly El Cherif]. She found work on the land of the weathy Mahmoud Bey [Mahmoud Yassine]. She became assiduously careful about Mahmoud's wealth and clashed with the estate's overseer over how to sell the crops for the best price. Mahmoud liked this so much he put her in charge of his personal affairs at his home. He was preparing to marry Nahi [Inas Al Degheidy] who became jealous of Ne'ma. Abdel Magid [Farid Shawqi] prepared a contract for Ne'ma to marry al-Bastawi while Nahi told Mahmoud he had to choose between her and Ne'ma. Mahmoud refused to fire Ne'ma, prompting Nahi to cancel their engagement. Mahmoud's liking for Ne'mat became love and he asked her to marry him, which she eventually did after cancelling the arrangements Abdel Magid had made with al-Bastawi. In contrasting Ne'ma's poverty-stricken heavily populated rural family life with Mahmoud's more solitary wealthy urban life, the film and its title seem to be suggesting large families are partly responsible for Egypt's poverty.

Cast and crew: Henry Barakat, Inas Al Degheidy, Samir Abdelazim, Mohsen Mohieddin, Mahmoud Yassine, Faten Hamama, Ragaa Hussein, Farid Shawqi, Wahid Farid, Abu Bakr Ezzat, Hassan Mustafa, Salah Nazmi, Wedad Hamdy, Hussein Assar, Magda El-Khatib, Aly El Cherif, Hussein El-Sherbini, Nahi Barakat, Mazhar Abolnega, Mohammad al-Saqa, Seifeddin Mokhtar
