Zanuck made this film version of it, and because it had taken so long to reach the screen, it was given the tagline "At last... It's on the screen!"; about a family of uneducated Georgia farmers who have valuable land that is ultimately taken away from them, and director John Ford had difficulty translating the play to the screen, because of the censorship of the day; Gene Tierney and Dana Andrews were the romantic leads, but they ended up with only a few minutes of screen time together, and Charley Grapewin's character "stole" the picture!) starring Charley Grapewin, Marjorie Rambeau, Gene Tierney (in her third movie role!), William Tracy, Dana Andrews, Slim Summerville, Ward Bond, Grant Mitchell, and Zeffie Tilbury NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a large collection of jumbo lobby cards we were consigned (it includes some "vertical" star portraits as well). In addition to including many extremely rare titles, many of the jumbo lobby cards are in nice condition (some have staining or paper loss, which is clearly marked when it is present, but almost all the cards are not at all fragile, which is a big plus with this size of movie paper). Condition: very good to fine. There is a small tear in the top right corner that has a piece of tape on the back. Otherwise, the card is in really nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
