Another notable one is DEADLY IS THE FEMALE, which of course became GUN
CRAZY.

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).

Thanks Jay -- anyone else have any ideas on my question?  I think Jay's
theory sounds probable but I don't think I've ever seen it happen before.
Thanks, Channing

It looks like Allied Artists printed a number of posters up before it was
decided to re-title the movie as Murder Is My Beat. Sounds more menacing.
Arent there other examples, especially of noir films, that did this kind of
title change, even tho posters had already been produced?

It's a great looking insert, regardless.

I have an insert poster for a film with Barbara Payton called Danger is my
Beat (Allied Artists 1955).  I've been trying to get information on it but
the only reference is what is obviously the same film but with the title
Murder is My Beat.  I can't find any reference to the film being released as
Danger is my Beat.

Does anyone here on MOPO know the story behind this mystery of this poster
with the unknown name?

Thanks, Channing Thomson
