MOVIE POSTER FAVORITES: Post 1:




















Posted by Picasa
I do love vintage original movie posters. I have several hundred all stored flat in a plans press filing cabinet. Out of these I only have the French 'Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte', and the 'Honeymoon Killers'  posters. But these are all posters I find visually stimulating graphically, and aesthetically. The first poster, 'The Witches' with Silvana Mangano is absolutely stunning. I have a different Italian poster from that, and 2 sets of lobby cards. The Vendetta poster you will remember from the set of 'Friends'. The Sunset Boulevard poster here is particularly dark...and very Medusa don't you think. The Barbara Stanwyck poster is amazing..its for The Night Walker..a William Castle film. But Marlene Dietrich in The Devil Is A Woman is just magnificent... from my all time favorite film. That film has it all, sheer glamour and artificiality, with an s&m undercurrent...  visually stunning beyond belief.
