Deep Blue Sea (1955) - (Vivien Leigh) Argentine one-sheet

This is a 29" x 43" Argentine one-sheet for the 1955 Anatole Litvak film The Deep Blue Sea based on play and screenplay by Terence Rattigan and starring Vivien Leigh as Hester Collyer and Kenneth More as Freddie Page. The design of this Argentine poster is derived directly from that of the US one-sheet, shown in the Wikipedia article about this film. Plot summary: Hester Collyer, who is not happy in her lackluster marriage, succumbs to the amorous advances of a dashing test pilot named Freddie Page. The two of them have an opportunity to spend time together when Hester's husband Judge William Collyer [Emlyn Williams] goes away for a month. Page is soon deeply conflicted because of the problems with his relationship with another man's wife. Off the screen, Kenneth More was also reportedly unhappy with the casting of Leigh because he felt she was wrong for the role. Despite these problems, for his work in this film More won the Venice Film Festival's Volpi Cup for best actor.

Cast and crew: Vivien Leigh, Kenneth More, Eric Portman, Emlyn Williams, Anatole Litvak, Moira Lister, Arthur Hill, Dandy Nichols, Jimmy Hanley, Miriam Karlin, Heather Thatcher, Bill Shine, Brian Oulton, Sidney James, Alec McCowen, Gibb McLaughlin

The Blue Lamp (1950) - (Jack Warner) Argentine one-sheet

This is a 29" x 43" Argentine one-sheet poster for the 1950 Basil Dearden film The Blue Lamp based on a screenplay by T.E.B. Clarke and starring Jack Warner as Constable George Dixon. The title refers to blue lamps that used to hang outside British police stations. Plot summary: This film, produced by Ealing Studios of London, depicts an encounter in July 1949 in the Paddington Green area of London between two police officers named George Dixon [Jack Warner] and Andy Mitchell [Jimmy Hanley] and two thieves named Tom Riley [Dirk Bogarde] and Spud [Patric Doonan] who plan a series of robberies with the help of Tom's girlfriend Diana Lewis [Peggy Evans]. When Tom Riley fatally shoots George Dixon during one of the robberies, many new implications and repercussions are added to the story. This is an early social realism film in which the lines between law-abiding citizens, law enforcement and criminal elements are still clearly drawn.
