Channing: it has happened before in movie poster history, sometimes like
with HOT BLOOD becoming THE WILD ONE, and the posters being redone, so that
we are not just talking about a title change.  SUSPICION (with a few lobby
cards initially created titled AFTER THE FACT) is another example, as is
THE WOMAN ON PIER 13 (at first under the title I MARRIED A COMMUNIST).
