An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Forty by Sixty Movie Poster (40x60; measures 40" x 60") (Learn More)

the 1962 re-edited, retitled release of "A Modern Marriage", the 1950 Paul Landres & Ben Parker bizarre pseudo sex frigidity-in-marriage documentary style melodrama ("AFRAID of love and marriage!"; "For the first time a motion picture dares to reveal frankly the vital problem that ruins thousands of young couples' lives every year!"; "Endorsed by the American Institute of Family Relations, Dr. Paul Popenoe, Director"; "The actual case history of a young wife whose strange inhibitions made her run away on her wedding day... And how an understanding doctor cured the fears that caused her to flee her husband's arms!"; "recommended for high school age and above"; "The sexual side of marriage chills me!"; "SEE why 1 out of every 3 marriages ends in divorce!"; "The Picture That Brings Marriage's Most Vital Problem Into The Open!"; "One wife out of every four is an emotional stranger to her husband!"; "Fears and inhibitions freeze the heart of one wife out of every four!") starring Margaret Field (billed as "Introducing Margaret Field"), Reed Hadley, Robert Clarke, Nana Bryant and Burt Wenland. Note that in 1962 a circus press agent named John Kenlo bought the rights to 'A Modern Marriage' and added about 15 minutes of new footage to the movie and re-titled it "Frigid Wife". Because it has additional footage and was re-edited with a new name, we give this movie its own listing.
