  • Live Forever Movie Poster

    Live Forever

    £225.00

    “They’ve never been on a building site. Not to say that that’s, you know; not to say that the dirt under your fingernails is some sort of badge of honor. It’s not. It’s just a fact, you know. They never had a paper route, you know. I had a milk route and stuff like that. I’ve working on building sites. That fundamentally makes my soul a lot more purer than theirs.” — Noel Gallagher on the rivalry with Blur. The best part is that he said it with a straight face.

    In 2003 John Dower’s Brit Pop documentary Live Forever was released….Featuring the talents of Oasis, Blur, Pulp, Jarvis Cocker, Noel Gallagher, Liam Gallagher, Damon Albarn, Toby Young and Damien Hirst. An excellent documentary capturing the phenomenon of the Britpop passage. It is worth noting that I think that even if you didn’t get the whole Britpop experience it is still worth watching to try and understand exactly what the period of time tried to encapsulate. Dragging Britain from a period of being totally dormant, to generating great music and creating an aura of genuine invincibility. A highlight of the film has to be the Damien Hirst designed UK quad movie poster. A real eye catching, talking piece poster for a movie that quickly became a cult classic. Genuinely scarce and in very short supply due to a limited cinema release. Never commercially available it is believed that there are a small number currently in circulation making genuine examples such as the one of offer here even more desirable.

    Limited Edition Damien Hirst prints regularly sell for £1,000+ so this original Live Forever” UK quad movie poster represents exceptional value and it looks really cool !
