  Basic Instinct

  £150.00

  “I’d have to be pretty stupid to write a book about killing and then kill him the way I described in my book. I’d be announcing myself as the killer. I’m not stupid.”

  The draw of “Basic Instinct” is its over-the-top style and sex, the way the story forges ahead with gleeful abandon and is widely regarded as an expertly crafted guilty pleasure. One of the most talked about movie of the early 90’s. From Sharon Stone’s leg crossing interrogation scene to Michael Douglas’ green cashmere jumper in a disco. This rolled (as issued), UK Quad from 1992 features close-ups of Michael Douglas & Sharon Stone designed by Dan Chapman and Kevin Bachman. It presents to excellent condition and represents  a fantastic piece of high quality cinematic movie memorabilia for a classic crime noir thriller.

  Trivia: After the film’s release, someone called Sharon Stone‘s mother and asked her how she would feel about her daughter’s nudity in the film. Her mother said, “Frankly, I was much more concerned about her playing a sociopathic serial killer, but thank you for calling”.

  Flashdance

  £75.00

  “Take your passion… And make it happen!”

  An original 1987, first year of release in Czechoslovakia small one sheet film poster for Adrian Lynne’s “Flashdance”. This beautiful originally rolled example is pretty much faultless. A classic 80s poster featuring some amazing colourful, completely different title style artwork by Zdenek Ziegler. Particularly scarce and sought after in such high grade condition with a real, funky eye-catching design. Often seen as one the THE defining and most loved movies of the 1980s it represents a fantastic piece of original cinematic movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: Joe Esposito recorded the vocals to the original version of “Flashdance … What A Feeling.” Producer Don Simpson and Adrian Lyne decided that since the lead character was a female, the song needed to be sung by a female. They hired Irene Cara to perform the song at the last minute. She re-wrote the original lyrics while riding in a car to the recording studio the day she recorded the song, and wound up winning an Oscar for her performance.

  Hearts of Fire

  £75.00

  “Mick Jagger was the first choice for the male lead, but turned it down before Bob Dylan got cast.”

  Designed by the creative arts agency Feref Associates this colourful and energetic UK quad film poster is a fitting tribute to the over the top 80’s. Like many of this type of ‘art-house’ film the cinematic release was strictly limited, making any paper from the original release extremely scarce and very sought after by memorabilia and Dylan fans with the British UK quad design being particularly desirable. This original 1987 film poster with its stylised artwork and ‘in your face colours’ was originally folded (as issued) and remains in excellent unrestored condition. It displays and presents near flawlessly with amazing rich colour tones and represents a fine example of original and collectable movie and rock ‘n’ roll memorabilia.
