  Being There

  £295.00

  “Getting there is half the fun…BEING THERE is all of it !”

  A surreal looking Polish One-Sheet for Hal Ashby’s Oscar winning “Being There” (1979) with artwork by Maria ‘Mucha’ Ihnatowicz for the first Polish release in 1982. With bright colours and distinctive painted illustration, it is a perfect complement to what is a excellent (dark) comedy film featuring a standout performance by Peter Sellers. A beautiful, stylish piece of film poster art that is unique to this Polish release. Originally rolled  (as issued) this beautiful unrestored 1979 example displays and presents to excellent effect and represents one of the most collectable Peter Sellers’ film posters available.

  Wild at Heart

  Exclusive imagery only used for the British release for “Wild at Heart”, a stunning panoramic flame-filled landscape guaranteed to attract attention. Elvis fan Nicholas Cage (Sailor) sports mirrored shades and a snake skin jacket that the King would have been proud of as he blazes a trail in his Blue Thunderbird complete with girlfriend Laura Dern (Lula) courtesy of cult Director David Lynch. Rare original first release 1990 UK quad poster designed by The Creative Partnership for this surreal David Lynch classic. With beautiful deep colour tones (that pop from the paper) and memorable design this original 1990 UK film poster is extremely scarce and sought after. Although a photographic image the iconic ‘Wild at Heart’ logo is subtly inserted into the bottom right area of the poster. It looks stunning with the desirability of this scarce piece further enhanced as it is beautifully presented in near perfect, unrestored, rolled condition. an impressive and quality item movie memorabilia for a very rare and collectable film poster from one of Cinema’s most revered ‘cult’ directors.

  Trivia: The distinctive snakeskin jacket Sailor wears in the film was actually Nicolas Cage‘s own. Cage asked director David Lynch if he could wear the jacket in the film, as a tribute to Marlon Brando‘s role in The Fugitive Kind (1960). After filming was completed, Cage gave his jacket to Laura Dern.
