  Point Break

  £225.00

  “27 banks in three years. Anything to catch the perfect wave!”

  Any paper for Kathryn Bigelow’s 1991 crime actioner “Point Break” is highly sought after. It is such a super stylish and cool heist movie that is much loved by a huge fanbase. This original British one-sheet is a great looking film poster featuring not just the two male leads – Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves but also number of action scenes from the movie. Originally folded (as issued) this looks and displays to excellent effect with minimal handling wear. A scarce, original collectable item of cinematic movie memorabilia for one of the best ‘buddy-movies’ of recent years with some of the greatest extreme action shots ever filmed.

  Trivia: The film was originally called “Johnny Utah” when Keanu Reeves was cast in the title role. The studio felt that this title said very little about surfing, and by the time Patrick Swayze was cast, the film had been renamed Riders on the Storm after the famous song by The Doors. However, the lyrics had nothing to do with the film, and so that title was also rejected. It was not until halfway through filming that “Point Break” became the film’s title, because of its relevance to surfing.
