An Original Vintage Theatrical English Movie Pressbook (English pb; measures 8 1/2" x 11 3/4" [22 x 30 cm]; 18 pages) (Learn More) The Feminine Touch (also released as "A Lamp Is Heavy" and it was released in the U.S. in 1957 as "The Gentle Touch"), the 1956 Pat Jackson English Ealing romantic medical doctor nurse hospital comedy ("The inside bedside story of the girls who put the 'urgery' in surgery-") starring George Baker, Belinda Lee, Delphi Lawrence, Adrienne Corri, Mandy Miller (billed as "Mandy"), Diana Wynyard. Note that we have seen English posters with all three titles mentioned above. A knowledgeable collector tells us that it is quite likely that English posters promoting the film in the U.K. featured "The Feminine Touch", and that English posters promoting the film in Canada initially used "The Gentle Touch", but new posters were printed with the title "A Lamp Is Heavy" to capitalize on the fact that the movie is based on a Canadian book using that title.

Finally, note that this English pressbook is complete and uncut!
