  Face/Off

  £95.00

  “It’s like looking in a mirror – only not.”

  Designed by BLT & Associates this original Advance (June 27) US One Sheet movie poster from 1997 featuring John Travolta and Nicolas Cage for John Woo’s ultra-cool, stylish, gun fu, actioner “Face/Off”. The third (and to date, most successful) American feature from Hong Kong action director John Woo, is everything a fan of Woo’s Asian work could possibly hope for It’s a loud, fast-paced, spectacularly violent epic helmed by a master craftsman, even with this ambitious third American feature, it is vastly on par with the director’s Hong Kong work, is very easily one of the best films of his career. This rolled (as issued) example features the split images of both Cage and Travolta and is presented in excellent condition and represents a desirable item of cinematic memorabilia.

  Trivia: Originally Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone were in mind to play the lead roles. When John Woo was brought in to direct, he decided that John Travolta and Nicolas Cage would be more suited to the roles. Other pairs that the studio wanted was Michael Douglas (who was the executive producer for this movie) and Harrison Ford, Bruce Willis and Alec Baldwin, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Steven Seagal, Denzel Washington and Wesley Snipes, and Robert De Niro and Al Pacino.
