Mickey Spillane's Kiss Me Deadly, the 1955 Robert Aldrich romantic crime film noir melodrama ("Blood-red kisses! White-hot thrills!"; "Mickey Spillane's Latest H-Bomb!"; "'I, The Jury' ' The Long Wait' and now Mickey Spillane strips down to naked fury"; "'I don't care what you do to me, Mike - Just do it fast!'") starring Ralph Meeker (as Mike Hammer), Albert Dekker, Paul Stewart, Juano Hernandez, Leigh Snowden, Cloris Leachman (in her first credited movie role!), Gaby Rodgers, Marian Carr, Maxine Cooper (as Velda), Jack Elam, and Jack Lambert. Note that it is thought that this movie was a major inspiration for the French New Wave movies of the 1960s. Also note that in the late 1990s, United Artists discovered the original filmed ending (director Aldrich had been forced to change it by the studio)! Finally, note that Mickey Spillane was a department store salesman in 1940 when he discovered he could sell stories for comic books, and he quickly wrote for all the major companies. After Pearl Harbor, he enlisted in the Air Force and became a fighter pilot. After the war, he wrote "I, the Jury" in 19 days, and it was published in 1947, and it sold 6.5 million copies in the U.S. alone. Its hero, Mike Hammer, a hard-boiled private eye, would appear in many more novels. Spillane would write for the movies, and he even played Mike Hammer in "The Girl Hunters" in 1963!

Important Added Info: Note that this British quad was folded vertically three times and horizontally three times (this being folded one time more than is sometimes done, but it is quite common with British quads, especially older ones). Because of this, this quad can be sent in one of our standard size flat packages (but if it is purchased together with quads that have not been folded in the same way, then it will of course have to be sent in one of our tubes if the other quads are unfolded, or, if it is purchased with other quads that are only folded once horizontally than it can either be sent in an oversized flat package, OR in a tube). But if this quad is purchased by itself (or solely with other quads that have been folded the same way), then the shipping can be lower, because it then fits in a standard package. But please realize that because this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time it is likely that the creases have diminished and therefore re-folding the poster will likely bring some of those creases back, but we leave that decision as to whether or not to re-fold the poster up to the individual buyer of this item. UNLESS THE BUYER TELLS US OTHERWISE, THIS QUAD WILL BE SENT ROLLED IN A TUBE.
