  The Matrix

  £225.00

  “It seems that you’ve been living two lives. One life, you’re Thomas A. Anderson, program writer for a respectable software company. You have a social security number, pay your taxes, and you… help your landlady carry out her garbage. The other life is lived in computers, where you go by the hacker alias “Neo” and are guilty of virtually every computer crime we have a law for. One of these lives has a future, and one of them does not.”

  On its release at the dawn of a new Millenia the Wachowski Brother’s ground breaking science fiction blockbuster “The Matrix” influenced everything from fashion, technology, how movies are made and introducing us to…Bullet-Time. This 2025 alternative movie poster by Pablo Olivera is an outstanding re-design that takes you to the heart of the matrix with its wealth of lore and symbology from the mega-hit, Pablo’s print is a thrilling look back at the film’s imagery and themes – “You take the blue pill – the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill – you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.”. It is a fine art giclee print where the colours literally pop from the paper and one of best examples I have seen that uses this printing process – the colours, in this case neon pinks, purples and blues are incredibly rich giving a true hand painted effect. This Purple Variant edition has been Hand-Numbered #11/75 that represents a cool looking film poster from a “game-changing” movie. A true modern classic that displays superbly and is presented in excellent rolled condition.

  Trivia: All scenes that take place within the Matrix have a green tint, as if watching them through a computer monitor. Scenes in the real world have a blue tint. Blue was also used at a minimum within the Matrix, since the directors thought blue was more of a real-world color (despite, ironically, blue being often the least-occurring color in nature). The fight scene between Morpheus and Neo, which is neither in the real world, nor in the Matrix, is tinted yellow.

  The Matrix

  £45.00

  “It seems that you’ve been living two lives. One life, you’re Thomas A. Anderson, program writer for a respectable software company. You have a social security number, pay your taxes, and you… help your landlady carry out her garbage.

  This original black and white press still was produced in 1999 to promote the release of the groundbreaking science-fiction action film “The Matrix.”

  The photograph features Keanu Reeves as Neo alongside Carrie-Anne Moss as Trinity, both dressed in the distinctive black costumes that became such an iconic part of the film’s visual style. The image is particularly effective in black and white and perfectly captures the sleek, futuristic look that helped make “The Matrix” instantly recognisable.

  Written and directed by Lana and Lilly Wachowski, “The Matrix” was released in 1999 and became one of the most influential science-fiction films of its generation. The film combined martial arts, cyberpunk imagery and groundbreaking visual effects with a story questioning the nature of reality, and went on to win four Academy Awards.

  The lower border carries the original Warner Bros. Distributors publicity caption identifying Carrie-Anne Moss and Keanu Reeves as Trinity and Neo, together with the 1999 Warner Bros. copyright and the instruction that the photograph was to be used for advertising, promotion, publicity or reviews of the film.

  Measuring 8 x 10 inches (20.25 x 25.5 cm), this authentic original 1999 studio press photograph is flat and unfolded (as issued) and in excellent high grade condition.

  A superb piece of original Warner Bros. promotional material from one of the defining science-fiction films of the 1990s.
