THE LONG NIGHT

Italian 2-Fogli (39" x 55")
Fine+ on Linen; Artwork by Giorgio Olivetti
RKO, 1947

The poster has been professionally linen-backed, with touch-ups applied to fold wear and minor chips within the border and images. The borders and white credit field have been skillfully airbrushed.

Directed by Anatole Litvak and told in a series of flashbacks, The Long Night is a remake of French director Marcel Carne's Le Jour se leve. Henry Fonda stars as a poor post-WWII veteran who falls in love with Jo Ann, played by Barbara Bel Geddes in her first leading role. Vincent Price plays the sinister magician Maximilian, who holds a strange influence over Jo Ann, and Ann Dvorak shines as Maximillian's assistant, Charlene.
