This particular sample advertises the following movies (the movies are from the 1940s, but this may well be from 1950s re-releases, although we can't say for sure): The Fountainhead, the 1949 King Vidor romantic philosophical architecture melodrama ("Monumental best-seller! Towering screen triumph!"; "Nobody takes what's mine!"; "A picture to remember from Warner Bros."; "Warner Bros.' Towering Triumph"; "No man takes what's mine!"; "The great best seller made greater on the screen by Warner Bros."; "Screen Play by Ayn Rand from her novel 'The Fountainhead'"; about a dedicated architect who refuses to compromise his principles, regardless of the cost; amazingly, Rand managed to keep much of the essence of her very wordy novel on screen; Rand herself picked Gary Cooper for the lead, and he had a serious affair with his much younger co-star Patricia Neal) starring Gary Cooper (as Howard Roark; "This is his role of roles!"), Patricia Neal (as Dominique Francon), Raymond Massey (as Gail Wynand), Kent Smith (as Peter Keating), Robert Douglas (as Ellsworth Toohey), Henry Hull (as Henry Cameron), Ray Collins (as Roger Enright), and Jerome Cowan (as Alvah Scarret) AND Kings Row, the classic 1942 Sam Wood small town family relationship medical doctor romantic melodrama ("From the novel by Henry Bellamann"; nominated for the Best Director and Best Picture Academy Award; a very strange movie about the goings-on in a small town; a bizarre doctor intentionally amputates Reagan's healthy legs as a sadistic punishment; this is the movie where Reagan, after waking from the "operation" utters the classic line, "Where's the rest of me?") starring Ann Sheridan, Robert Cummings (Bob Cummings), Ronald Reagan, Betty Field, Charles Coburn, Claude Rains, Judith Anderson, Nancy Coleman, Kaaren Verne, Maria Ouspenskaya, Harry Davenport, Ernest Cossart, and Scotty Beckett AND Key Largo, the 1948 John Huston crime film noir ("Killer against killer, gun to gun, on the hot spot of the Florida Keys!"; "You'll see the performance of your life in the hit of their lives!"; set in the Florida Keys during a hurricane!; based on the hit play by Maxwell Anderson) starring Humphrey Bogart, Edward G. Robinson, Lauren Bacall, Lionel Barrymore, Claire Trevor (in her Best Supporting Actress Academy Award winning role), Thomas Gomez, John Rodney, Dan Seymour, Harry Lewis, and Marc Lawrence. Note that this was the final movie in which Humphrey Bogart co-starred with Lauren Bacall. They first met during the filming of "To Have and Have Not" in 1944, and then were married in 1945. They re-teamed for "The Big Sleep" in 1946, and then made "Dark Passage" the following year. They teamed again in for this movie in 1948, but they did not make another movie together, likely having a lot to do with their having two children. Condition: very good to fine.
