An Original Vintage Theatrical 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) The Day the Earth Stood Still, the classic 1951 Robert Wise science fiction (sci-fi) alien-contact thriller ("From out of space.... a warning and an ultimatum!"; "Strange power from another planet menaces the Earth!"; from the story by Harry Bates; about a super intelligent alien visiting the Earth, and mankind mistrusts him without reason; he is able to "pass" as a human, and he visits the world's greatest scientist, and when he is injured and taken to a hospital, he is rescued by his robot Gort) starring Michael Rennie (as Klaatu), Patricia Neal, Hugh Marlowe, Sam Jaffe, Billy Gray, Frances Bavier, and Lock Martin (as Gort the Robot). Note that the unusual music heard in this movie was achieved through the use of the musical instrument called a theramin, and audiences loved the eerie sounds it made, and it became standard in many science fiction movies thereafter to use this instrument in the same way! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a collection of 32 individual 8x10 stills we were consigned. The collector who assembled them wanted the best single "monster" image from each movie, and he searched for ones in excellent condition, and he did quite a nice job in finding these 32! They are in 32 separate auctions, and it is a great opportunity to obtain these "best" stills, which are far more difficult to find than other stills from the same movies. Condition: very good. There are some tiny creases scattered in the blank borders, but the still is otherwise in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
