Re: A Do You Know Your Classic Movies Quiz.
Correct answer for C671 and well solved. Originally released in the U.S.A. in 1951 as being titled Ace In The Hole, but due to poor early box office returns promptly the title was changed to be that of The Big Carnival. A great Billy Wilder film.theartofmovieposters said:671 The Big Carnival or Ace in the hole or something like that! You know what I am talking about

It certainly is Barbarella, so well worked out. John Phillip Law appears below seen playing the roll of Pygar a blind angel.dedeposter said:Is 250 Barbarella (1968)? It has that look to it.

This was always true of U.S. pressbooks. Some people act like "if it is not in the pressbook, it is not first release" but there is no reason to think that.HONDO said:I cannot overall speak on why there were poster accessories missing from being listed from Australian press sheets, but I can at least explain what happened with 1940's Paramount Pictures press sheets. If would appear that from the following example, along with others, that press sheets were printed well in advance of the film's release, and often certain sizes were not at the time of printing available to be included. Two other examples of this occurring are with For Whom The Bell Tolls and The Hour Before The Dawn press sheets information that were recently included here on this thread.

Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films
If you do manage Andrew to locate the photo album in the future and there are a number of photos you think would be well placed here, it would be great to see them.

Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films
Nice find! Thanks for sharing. On the Eureka Stockade (1949), I bought many years ago a photo album which was taken by one film staff of photos behind the scene. I have it search for the album - somewhere in my storage.

(NFSA)An extremely rare Australian glass lantern slide produced for the 1915 Australian silent film The Loyal Rebel. The film was based on the Eureka Rebellion that was started by gold miners against authorities in 1854 at Ballarat Victoria Australia.
There was also a later film made on the subject tilled Eureka Stockade (1949) that was included here on this thread in November 2023.
