In the clash of its giants among men, it is one of the most powerful adventures of World War II!"; "...now all the raw fury of World War II compressed into this one ship... these two foes... this unique motion picture!"; "'Morituri' means something unusual..."; "Screenplay by Daniel Taradash") starring Marlon Brando, Yul Brynner, Janet Margolin, Trevor Howard (billed as "Guest Star Trevor Howard as Colonel Statter"), and Wally Cox. Note that when this movie was release it was titled "Morituri," however, the movie bombed because many people misunderstood the title, thinking that it was some sort of horror-type movie instead of the spy drama that it was. The movie was re-released featuring the new title "The Saboteur: Code Name,'Morituri'," but it was too late and the movie bombed again anyway! 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 this one-sheet was printed in the United States for use at theaters with Spanish speaking audiences (this was done most by MGM, starting in the 1930s, but it was done by the other major studios as well, and often the posters would have the exact same image as the English language poster, except the writing would be in Spanish, and on posters from the 1930s and 1940s there would be an added "Toda en Espanol!", meaning "Entirely in Spanish!", printed within the image). Sometimes posters from the 1960s or later will have the word "SPANISH" printed in the bottom border (or sometimes stamped on the back of the poster). Condition: fair to good. There are several creases and tears throughout the poster. Many of the tears or other defects as described above have been repaired with several pieces of tape from the back.
