  • Anaconda Movie Poster

    Anaconda

    £125.00

    “When You Can’t Breathe You Can’t Scream”e

    “Anaconda” is listed among the 100 Most Enjoyably Bad Movies Ever Made in Golden Raspberry Award founder John Wilson‘s book The Official Razzie Movie Guide and is reported to be one of Dame Helen Mirren’s favourite movies. A huge cult following and a guilty pleasure for many with a cinema poster that promises a lot more than the film delivers – it’s an eye catching ‘eyes without a face’ (EWAF) design featuring the titular Anaconda. This rolled (as issued) UK quad, from first year of release 1997 presents to superb effect with a deep black background and yellow eyes that pop from the paper. It’s a very rare scarce original poster from a true cult movie of the genre.

    Trivia: Within the movie you can really see two scenes with real anacondas: the first scene is when they blow up the barrier that obstructs the river, after the explosion several of the snakes that fall into the boat are Green Anacondas you can also see a boa constrictor (another of the largest snakes in the Amazon rainforest); The second scene is when Terri enters the anaconda’s nest where the snakes they show are real green anacondas.

  • Midnight Cowboy Movie Poster

    Midnight Cowboy

    £95.00

    “Whatever you hear about Midnight Cowboy is true”

    A classic and scarce original 2019 BFI 50th Anniversary 4K release British UK quad film poster for John Schlesinger’s multi Award winning “Midnight Cowboy”, still the only X-Rated movie to win an Oscar. It was nominated for seven and won three including Best Director for John Schlesinger which was an (then) unheard of return for an ‘X’ film. Beautiful distinctive character imagery; a great black & white character shot of ‘Ratso’ (Dustin Hoffman and ‘Joe’ (Jon Voight). Originally rolled (as issued) this example displays and presents to excellent effect with pure bright white background and crisp colour imagery. Showing in only a handful of independent and art-house cinemas the advertising campaign was very low key and the UK film poster that accompanied the extremely limited cinema release is truly hard to find with this fine example representing an impressive item of collectable original cinematic memorabilia.

    Trivia: Dustin Hoffman kept pebbles in his shoe to ensure his limp would be consistent from shot to shot.
