  Almost Famous

  £135.00

  “I always tell the girls, never take it seriously, if ya never take it seriosuly, ya never get hurt, ya never get hurt, ya always have fun, and if you ever get lonely, just go to the record store and visit your friends.”

  Great looking and brilliantly designed film poster by creative arts agency FEREF. The studio used this provocative and sexy shot of rock groupie ‘Penny Lane’ (Kate Hudson) across the worldwide marketing campaign for Cameron Crowe’s Oscar winning “Almost Famous” and it has since become one of the most recognisable of ‘modern’ film poster images. This rolled (as issued) US/International one sheet is from first year of release (2000) is in high grade original condition that displays very well with imagery that makes it one of the most memorable of recent years. Colourful and eye-catching, it represents a fine piece of collectable and sought after original rock memorabilia with a movie tie-in.

  Trivia: The film is director Cameron Crowe‘s semi-autobiographical account of life as a young Rolling Stone reporter. The actual group Crowe first toured with was The Allman Brothers Band. Gregg Allman distrusted him, and kept asking if he was a narc. Crowe was in a near-fatal plane crash while traveling with The Who. The character of Russell Hammond is partially based on Glenn Frey of the Eagles.

  La Dolce Vita

  £195.00

  “A series of stories following a week in the life of a philandering tabloid journalist living in Rome.”

  One of the best and most acclaimed movie ever made, Federico Fellini’s “La Dolce Vita”. A stunning, duotone photographic film poster, featuring the titular ‘La Dolce Vita’ exclusive to the remastered BFI release of 2020 with imagery that is unique to Britain and only featured on this UK quad poster that features the iconic scene of Anita Ekberg ebulliently splashing her way into the centre of the Trevi Fountain in Rome. The example offered here is presented in excellent unrestored, rolled (as issued) condition. It displays beautifully.  As a largely art-house and independent cinema release, posters for this limited time screening are extremely scarce and rarely comes to market. It represents a fine piece of collectable movie memorabilia for one of the big screen’s greatest & most influential films.

  Trivia: The film contributed the term “paparazzo” to the language. The term derives from Marcello’s photographer friend Paparazzo. Federico Fellini took the name “Paparazzo”, as he explained in a later interview, from the name of someone he met in Calabria (Southern Italy) where Greek names are still common. “Paparazzi” is the plural.

  La Dolce Vita

  £125.00

  “A series of stories following a week in the life of a philandering tabloid journalist living in Rome.”

  One of the best and most acclaimed movie ever made, Federico Fellini’s “La Dolce Vita”. Anita Ekberg takes centre stage with imagery that is unique to this 1982 Japanese release. Whilst Ekberg is presented in full vibrant colour with the background imagery – a combination of key scenes from the movie presented in muted colours, giving a 3D type of effect for Ekberg who literally pops from the paper. The Japanese B2 offered here is presented in very good unrestored, rolled (as issued) condition. It displays beautifully.  As a largely art-house and independent cinema release, posters for this are extremely scarce and rarely comes to market. It represents a fine piece of collectable movie memorabilia for one of the big screen’s greatest & most influential films.
