Date Sold 12/26/2021Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A 1951 Re-Release (re-titled "Try and Get Me" for this re-release) Theatrical Paperbacked Style B Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) The Sound of Fury, the 1950 Cy Endfield (billed as "Cyril Endfield") romantic crime film noir ("You must see it... Hear it... Feel it...'Shock Entertainment!'"; "An emotional explosion to blast you out of your seat!"; "Adapted for the screen by Jo Pagano from his novel, 'The Condemned'") starring Frank Lovejoy (billed together with Lloyd Bridges as "Reuniting those two wonderful guys, Mingo and Finch, from 'HOME OF THE BRAVE.'"), Kathleen Ryan, Richard Carlson, Lloyd Bridges (very young in this role!), Katherine Locke, Adele Jergens, Art Smith, Irene Vernon, and Renzo Cesana. Note that this movie premiered in December of 1950 as "The Sound of Fury", and Lloyd Bridges was fourth billed. At some point in 1951, the movie was re-titled "Try and Get Me!", and Lloyd Bridges was prominently pictured on all the posters. One possibility is that the producers simply decided this was a more effective title and ad campaign, and another possibility is that Bridges was now more prominent (he had starred in one of the first sci-fi movies, "Rocketship X-M", in 1950, and maybe that accounts for his increased prominence). We also don't know if the movie was reedited at all. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned three examples of this 1951 re-release half-sheet, and we have never before auctioned a first release half-sheet! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thicker paper backing, it CAN'T be sent rolled (someone could conceivably roll it or try to do so, but we know it would definitely lessen its condition, so we will only send it in a very large flat package, unless the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage).

Prior to paperbacking, the poster had creases, and tiny bits of paper loss on both folds with pinholes, smudges and tiny paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
