Listed title NOT same as on-screen title! (No 'Great')

Well guess what!
I originally saw "The Great St Louis Bank Robbery" as a supporting feature at the Odeon theatre Herne Bay in Kent UK in late 1959.
So in response the the writer who claimed that the original UK release was titled "The Saint Louis......rather than "The Great Saint Louis Bank Robbery" I'm afraid your thoughts are incorrect.
This was the very first time that I saw Steve McQueen in action. After the movie had screened I recall thinking that this actor, McQueen, was someone that was bound to be targetted for stardom. And as history has proven I was obviously not wrong as indeed I was not when I spotted an actor ( pre nose-job) in a film called "The Day they robbed the Bank of England".
The actor was of course the legendary Peter O'Toole and even to this day I pride myself that even in the late 1950's I had the ability to be able to sniff out a future star.
Years later when working for 20th Century Fox in Johannesburg I had the privilege to meet a a young unknown English actress out in Africa to co-star in her first major feature film.She had a co-starring role in the James Brolin / Claire Trevor action adventure film "Escape Route Capetown".
Most of the technicians working on the picture thought that she would never make it in the movies.
The young English actress however proved them very wrong because, immediately on completion of her stint in Johannesburg, she upped and offed to Hollywood where soon she was to star with Frank Sinatra in "The Detective" as well as in the evergreen Peter Yates film "Bullitt" starring the fabulous Steve McQueen.
Her name of course - the remarkable Ms. Jacqueline Bissett.
