A 1950 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Man's Castle, the 1933 Frank Borzage Depression era romantic love triangle melodrama ("Her heart was like a secret city... but his flaming love laid siege to it and captured her forevermore..."; "Theirs was a love as mighty as life itself!"; "They drank freely from the fountain of love --- intoxicated with a passion that blinded them to all but their own great romance--"; "'Love me more than yesterday - and less today than tomorrow...'"; "From the story by Lawrence Hazard"; in sharp counterpoint to the cheery romantic musicals that were popular at the time, this movie has Tracy as a wandering laborer who meets up with beautiful yet broke Loretta Young and he marries her, but, as is his style, plans to move on, but when he discovers she is pregnant, he tries to commit a major robbery so that he can leave her with enough money to take care of her and her baby; unsentimental and reflective of the desperation of those times!) starring Spencer Tracy, Loretta Young, Glenda Farrell (as a showgirl who wants Tracy for a playmate!), Arthur Hohl, Walter Connolly, Marjorie Rambeau, Dickie Moore, and Helen Jerome Eddy 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 the poster says "A COLUMBIA REPRINT" in the lower right corner. This was a terminology used by Columbia Pictures at this time for some re-releases, and it has caused some collectors to be confused! This poster is the original poster from the 1950 re-release of this movie, and is NOT a "reprint"! Condition: very good. There is some separation at the top crossfold (repaired with a small piece of clear tape from the back) and at the top end of the vertical fold. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition.
