  Risky Business

  £275.00

  “Joel had all the normal teenage fantasies…cars, girls, money. Then his parents left for a week, and all his fantasies came true.”

  In 1983 “Risky Business” was Paul Brickman’s stylish and intelligent film that redefined the teen angst comedy and created a new movie star in Tom Cruise. One of the most desirable of all the Tom Cruise titles the original 1983 UK quad movie poster offered here is presented in excellent condition with only very minimal handling wear. Originally rolled (as issued) it displays superbly with amazing graphics and bright  colours offset the dark unfaded black background. Fantastic imagery where you could be fooled in to thinking it was an advert for Porsche cars or Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses and not the one of the defining teen movies of the 1980’s. A genuinely rare (in this high grade condition) piece of original highly collectable movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: The sunglasses Joel wears are the Ray-Ban Wayfarer model. Annual sales of Wayfarers were languishing as of 1983 but skyrocketed 2,000 percent after the movie’s release. This film and The Blues Brothers (1980) have contributed to the popularity of the Wayfarers since.
