Kurtz had always been written as tall and very thin. After some panic, Coppola decided to film the 5’10” Brando as if he was a massively built, 6’5″ brute to explain his size, and kept the camera away from his huge belly.

  • Apollo 11 Movie Poster

    Apollo 11

    £95.00

    “NASA realized after the Apollo 11 mission had returned to Earth that they had no good pictures of the First Man on the Moon to show to the world. Astronaut Buzz Aldrin said later: ‘As the sequence of lunar operations evolved, Neil had the camera most of the time, and the majority of pictures taken on the Moon that include an astronaut are of me. It wasn’t until we were back on Earth and in the lunar receiving laboratory, looking over the pictures, that we realised there were few pictures of Neil. My fault, perhaps, but we had never simulated this in our training.’.”

    In 2019 it was 50 years since Man first walked on the Moon and this excellent UK quad is the perfect complement to this historic moment. “Apollo 11” from Todd Douglas Miller is crafted from a newly discovered trove of 70mm footage, and more than 11,000 hours of uncatalogued audio recordings, “Apollo 11” takes us straight to the heart of NASA’s most celebrated mission—the one that first put men on the moon, and forever made Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin into household names. Immersed in the perspectives of the astronauts, the team in Mission Control, and the millions of spectators on the ground, we vividly experience those momentous days and hours in 1969 when humankind took a giant leap into the future. The Buzz Aldrin ‘Visor’ photograph taken by Neil Armstrong is one of the most famous images in the world, it’s a poignant & almost haunting image. Presented with minimal handling wear, and offered in rolled (as issued) condition this displays to superb effect and represents a truly fine item of historically important film poster memorabilia.
