Middle of the Night, the 1959 Delbert Mann old-man-young-woman romantic melodrama ("For every girl who was ever involved with an older man!"; "They came from the opposite ends of desire..."; "'...Everybody else we knew were getting married so this boy and I got married. I guess we just got tired necking in the back of his car. We'd watch television, and around eleven o'clock we'd both march into the bedroom as if it were the gas chamber...'"; "'This pretty little thing wants to marry you, so marry her! How many years you got left in your life so you can afford to throw away even a couple of good ones?'"; "...So we're sitting down to dinner, your father says to me: 'I've been going out with a girl.' So I thought a 45-year-old-girl, a 50-year-old-girl. It comes out it's a 24-year-old-girl. I couldn't eat. I kept my mouth shut. But I was sick.'"; "'Two months after you marry this old man you'll be meeting me at nights anyway. So why bother marrying him?'"; "Screenplay by Paddy Chayefsky Based upon his play presented on Broadway by Joshua Logan") starring Kim Novak, Fredric March, Glenda Farrell, Albert Dekker, Martin Balsam, Lee Grant, and Lee Philips

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at just a few crossfolds and a very few creases, scuffs, and tiny tears on parts of some foldlines, with some scuff marks in the top credits area and in the left and right yellow borders, and a few scuffs scattered in the image. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
