Title A name given to the resource Dual-Theater Movie Herald for <em>The Day the Earth Stood Still</em> and Upcoming Attractions Description An account of the resource Klaatu barada nikto... this right panel of a vintage double-theater herald showcases a vital piece of promotional ephemera for Twentieth Century-Fox’s landmark production, The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951). Directed by Robert Wise and featuring a highly praised, haunting theremin score by Bernard Herrmann, this film marked a profound shift in American science fiction. Rather than presenting standard outer-space monsters, it introduced a sophisticated, philosophically driven narrative that directly confronted the widespread atomic anxiety and political paranoia of the early Cold War era.

Title A name given to the resource <em class="eujQNb">Ultimátum a la Tierra<!--TgQPHd|[]--></em> (The Day the Earth Stood Still) Promotional Handbill Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource c. 1952 Description An account of the resource This vibrant lithographic handbill (folleto de mano) was produced for the Spanish theatrical release of Robert Wise’s landmark 1951 American science fiction film, The Day the Earth Stood Still.The illustration is the work of Soligó, one of Spain's most prolific and celebrated mid-century film poster artists. It depicts the iconic, towering metallic robot Gort confronting a terrified Helen Benson (played by Patricia Neal). In the background, a beam of light slices through the night sky toward the United States Capitol dome in Washington, D.C., emphasizing the film's Cold War political anxieties and themes of global intervention.Handbills of this type were a staple of Spanish cinema culture from the 1920s through the 1960s. Distributed at theater entrances or tucked into local newspapers, they served as collectible, double-sided advertisements. The reverse side typically featured local theater showtimes, synopses, or promotional text provided by the distributor, Hispano Foxfilm, S.A. This piece stands as a striking example of how Hollywood's golden age of science fiction was visually reinterpreted to captivate European audiences. https://thetheremin.org/archive/files/original/106425d3b29fee111cd19f3ae068c388.jpg e212eb21035265f1b9a3f3f13312d2d4 https://thetheremin.org/archive/files/original/4900adc9fe3d5569df458d71962b861c.png 8ec9e3446484f3a2e621f27ebd0bf0e2 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
