No, it's dynamite!"; "Hate is like a loaded gun!"; "Murder without motive!"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; based on the novel 'The Brick Foxhole' by Richard Brooks; very daring for its day; about a serviceman who while on leave kills a Jewish man due to bigotry; in the original source novel, the man who is killed was homosexual, but that was TOO much for Hollywood in 1947, and given that World War II was fresh on people's minds, changing the victim to a Jewish person made a lot of sense!) starring Robert Young, Robert Mitchum, Robert Ryan (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film), Gloria Grahame (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Paul Kelly, Sam Levene, George Cooper, and Marlo Dwyer NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still is a key book still, mounted to a linen backing. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Condition: good. There is discoloration in the middle left, caused by the snipe glued to the back (see our images). Learn More about condition grades
