Thanks much for trying, Lawrence, but 341 doesn't even seem remotely familiar.
I had thought Bruce that you may have known the answer due to the amount of material you have sold in the past featuring the female singer's image who appears in my posted image. You also have a few cards which include the singer with the band as well.
Since Bruce passed, I believe 341 is April Olrich in Battle of the River Plate
Correct and well spotted with The Book Thief. I have this film awaiting to view soon.
And also correct for answering # 341 as being The Battle Of The River Plate ( 1956 ) ( aka Pursuit Of The Graf Spee in the U.S.A. ), and the singer being April Olrich. She appears on the bottom of the following U.S. poster replacing Peter Finch who is featured on the U.K. poster artwork.
U.K. U.S.A.
For those who haven't been aware of April Olrich here she is in a scene from in The Skull ( 1965 ).
Correct. Ice Cold In Alex was also released in a heavily edited version in the U.S.A. titled Desert Attack.
My clue of '' some exposure that wasn't sun related didn't end up in the final film release'' referred to Sylvia Syms body exposure.
Information I had originally posted in the April 2018 forum thread regarding Sylvia and John's scene follows.
According to IMDB trivia - '' The love scene
between Anson and Diana had to be re-shot after the British censor decided that
Sylvia Syms had too many buttons undone on her blouse,
Pinterest says regarding this image - ''
although this shot doesn't actually appear in ''Ice Cold In Alex'' Sylvia Syms
is still pretty hot in the film. She has Johnnie Mills full attention''.
It goes on to say- '' Sylvia Syms and John Mills in ''Ice Cold In Alex'',
Dir, J. Lee Thompson. This scene was not included in the final film, as it was
deemed too suggestive with too much cleavage.
Sylvia Syms in a publicity photo from Ice Cold
In Alex . The film censor decided that four buttons unfastened on her tunic was
one too many and the scene had to be re-shot after filming was finished with
only three buttons undone''.
I had thought that this image wouldn't have
been in the film as is was 1958 and not in the 1960's when this amount of
cleavage was allowed. revealing too much cleavage''.
I will now mention that the banned original scene image, although not used in the film, was still used on a U.K. one sheet, and also in a toned down version on the Australian daybill poster.
Correct. Hitler's Madman was a 1943 release. There is an excellent looking Australian daybill and also an Australian one sheet with different artwork viewable on Google, but I like the following Australian artwork better, which includes the image that I had posted earlier.
''Although this film was originally filmed by poverty-row studio
Producers Releasing Corp. (PRC), the word got out in Hollywood that the picture
was far and away the best thing PRC had ever done; eventually MGM executives
got a look at it, were suitably impressed, bought it from PRC and it was
released as an MGM picture.'' (IMDB trivia)
Excellent prompt responses received. Now leaving only the one image that I had thought would be the hardest one to identify. If it isn't answered over the next two days I will supply a clue or two.
It's great to see this one put to bed. The Eternal Sea was released in 1955.

I appreciate everyone making a sterling effort in trying to figure out # 345. Another clue shortly.
The sterling referred to the leading actor Sterling Hayden.
Final # 345 clue is on top of a mountain. A little suggestion with this particular clue is for you to look beyond what actually happens in the film.
The top of a mountain referred to one of the advertsiing logos used at one time by Republic Pictures of an eagle on top of a mountain.

Four more images that may challenge one with the ability to be able to identify a couple of them. Let's see how you go with this selection.
Fascinating story based on an actual event where the Brits dropped a body off the coast of Italy to mislead the Germans about invasion plans.

I never knew the military in the 1950s let someone who lost a leg remain on active service!
I learned something, and I thank you Lawrence.

346 Released in the 1970s.
347 Released in the 1950s
348 Released in the 1930s.
Use your skills or try your luck with these three. Some well known faces that hopefully should be able to assist in working out the answers.

Is 346 The Train? That is a wonderful war movie!
Sorry Bruce but it isn't The Train from 1964. I agree wholeheartedly that it is a great film. I must watch it again sometime.
The Train was from the 1960s whereas the film in question here is from the 1970s. Good luck.

Clue for 346. Usually the aggressor.
Clue for 347. A Lawrence family connection.
349. Released in the 1950s.
One more. Something here in common with the answered number 345.
jayn_j - July 18
Got 349 right off. I'll give others a chance on it though since I already answered one.
Hondo - July 20
For the others then I am thinking what more can I say.
Final clue for # 346 is in that there was a long time connection with a different genre of film.
Final Clue for # 347 is think World War 11 north african campaign.
