Dreams of Youth
[ahlam al-shabab] احلام الشباب starring Farid Al Atrache, based on a story by Youssef Wahby with screenplay by Kamal Selim, dialogue by Badei Khayri and cinematography by Sami Brail.  Plot summary: Farid [Farid Al Atrache] became wealthy and he had a passion for love.  That was why he became acquainted with his neighbor Elham [Madiha Yousri], an orphan who lived with her aunt Basiyouni [Marie Munib].  With Bassiyouni's agreement Farid became Elham's piano teacher.  In a complication that plays itself out during the film a dancer named Baheya [Taheya Cariocca] also tried to woo Farid, but he did not love her even though they performed together.  The poster is in excellent condition but it is old and brittle with edge damage small fold separations.  It is quite rare!
