    The Long Good Friday

    £695.00

    “Nothing unusual,” he says! Eric’s been blown to smithereens, Colin’s been carved up, and I’ve got a bomb in me casino, and you say nothing unusual?”

    A critical and commercial success and perhaps the best British movie (gangster or otherwise) ever made…John MacKenzie’s “The Long Good Friday”. Receiving a very limited release in UK cinemas (it was nearly never released due to financial problems & only saved as a cinematic production by George Harrison, with his Handmade Films stepping in at the 11th hour) meant that any paper is scarce, with the British one sheet featuring Ron Fenton’s artwork, the scarcest of them all (this is the only time I have offered one for sale) making this original 1980 British, country of origin one sheet, a rare find especially in such high grade condition. Fenton’s exciting action montage for this classic British gangster film features an exploding rolls Royce, an exploding casino, mobsters being hung upside down on meathooks in an abattoir and some incredible character portraits – Bob Hoskins in arguably his best film role, alongside Helen Mirren, Eddie Constantine and P.H. Moriarty (as the psychotic hardman Razors). This excellent example is presented rolled (as issued) and represents an exceptional piece of collectable original film memorabilia from a true British gangster classic…“The Mafia? I’ve shit ’em”

    Trivia: The actors being held upside-down on meathooks in the abattoir had to be supported between takes, to prevent them passing out.

  • The-Punisher-Movie-Poster

    The Punisher

    £75.00

    “Judge, Jury, and Executioner is what The Punisher is.”

    “The Punisher” may be one of the darkest comic book characters ever created. This film and especially Thomas Jane, get that which makes this film is one of the better in the genre, because it sticks to the source better than most. By 2004 the cinema had already seen an influx of ‘big-budget’ super hero movies; X-Men, Spiderman, Hulk as well as a re-imagined Batman so a ‘new’ Punisher was a safe bet as the character of Frank Castle still one of the most popular creations and a corner stone of the ‘Marvel Universe’. Designed by creative arts agency Intralink Film Graphic Design this original 2004 UK quad film poster is typical of the character, dark & moody. Originally rolled (as issued) this looks and displays to excellent effect with impressive artwork highlighting both The Punisher (Thomas Jane) & his protagonist Howard Saint (John Travolta). It represents a fine piece of collectible ‘comic book’ cinema movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: Seeing as he had only one involvement with the creation of the original Punisher character; (changing the character from ‘The Assassin’ to ‘The Punisher’) this is one of the few movies based on a Marvel Comic in which Stan Lee does not appear.
