Columbia Pictures Original Italian movie poster for the Charles Vidor romantic drama A SONG TO REMEMBER (1945). The film stars Merle Oberon, Cornel Wilde and Paul Muni. Also appearing are Nina Foch, George Coulouris, Franklyn Farnum and Geroge Macready. The film is a highly fictionalized biography of the Polish composer Frederic Chopin. Released near the end of World War II, the film serves almost as propaganda, creating a wartime narrative emphasizing Chopin's Polish patriotism. The film was nominated for several Academy Awards, including one for Miklos Rozsa's score. Interestly, Jose Iturbi played the piano for the film. The poster's art by Anselmo Ballester's elevates the romanticism of Chopin's affair with George Sand. This very well could be the most beautiful poster on this film. The poster is folded and is graded as fine plus. Uncommon. MovieArt Original Film Posters in Austin, Texas guarantees that this poster is authentic.
