Pictured is a first printing of a 33" x 46" two-piece Egyptian poster designed
by Ahmed Fouad and Studio Adly to promote the 1949 113-minute Ahmed Badrakhan
black-and-white film I Love You Only [ahebak enta] starring
Farid Al Atrache and Samia Gamal based on story and dialogue by
Youssef Gohar with screenplay by Ahmed Badrakhan and cinematography by
Ahmed Khorshed. Plot summary: Monir [Farid Al Atrache] was an
insignificant employee at the Telegraph Company, and an artist: a
musician who had never found a place for himself. He met a dancer
named Nadia [Samia Gamal] and they fell in love, but Monir soon became
jealous of Nadia's dancing teacher Ghazal [Abdel Salam Al Nabulsy] and
ended his relationship with her. He met a girl named Souraya [Zeinat
Sedki] who was about to commit suicide because her father [Hassan
Fayek] was forcing her to marry someone she did not love. Monir saved
her from doing that, but her fiance immediately disliked him. It
later became apparent Monir had no interest in marrying Souraya and he
went back to Nadia after his faith in her love was restored. His
father financed his production of a big musical, which was an
outstanding success.
