An undeniably effective six sheet.  Dmytryk's film underscored Nazi brutality.

Edward Dmytryk taught for a semester at the University of Texas.  I met him at 
a poster sale that I conducted in the Texas
Union.  He came up to speak with me because I was standing in front of a six 
sheet for THE CARPETBAGGERS.  He said
simply, "I directed that film."  He was genial.  Later I went to visit him at 
his home after he had been injured in a fall and
gave him some posters from his films.  He was under duress and didn't feel like 
talking much.  When I asked him what
Elizabeth Taylor was "really like", he excused himself and went to an upstairs 
room.  Admittedly it was a dumb question!
