“Wait a minute, Doc. Ah…Are you telling me that you built a time machine…out of a DeLorean ?”

A truly stunning original One-Sheet film poster for the Robert Zemeckis sci-fi time travel romp as Marty McFly goes “Back To The Future”…Beautiful re-worked Drew Struzan artwork for one of the most recognisable images of the 80’s, Marty (Michael J. Fox and his time travelling De Lorean). Offered here is an original 2010, 25th Anniversary U.S / International one-sheet movie poster. This unrestored example presents and displays to excellent effect being originally rolled (as issued) with minimal handling wear and beautiful deep colours that ‘pop’ from the paper. A rare and extremely desirable piece of original film memorabilia from one of the most popular and much loved movies ever made…“If you’re gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style ?”

Film Description

Back to the Future Movie Poster

“Marty McFly got home early last night…30 years early !”

What else needs to be said? Anyone that knows anything about filmmaking knows that “Back to the Future“ is one of the best film ever made. Try watching certain movies over and over and see how quickly you get sick of it. This movie is different. The depth and richness of storytelling, the characters, oh my, the characters. Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) is easily one of the best and most memorable on screen characters in any film ever. Biff, Griff, Buford (Thomas F.Wilson)…best on screen bully ever! Compare this movie to other epic movies, such as “Star Wars“ – while those types of movies are great in their own right, “Back to the Future” is different. There is a warmth and comfort to the way that Bob Gale and Bob Zemekis crafted this screenplay. It’s pure genius. And for all of you fans that always have to mention “plot holes” or “minor flaws” – please make sure you have seen every second of the 25th Anniversary set of the trilogy that has an entire bonus disc, as well as more bonus features and two different commentaries on the main discs. Bob Gale is aware of every little detail about his script and talks about it in the commentaries. My true love of this film came as a result of watching all the behind the scenes material – which if you haven’t seen, you must see it if you’re a fan of this movie. It will give you a whole new level of appreciation for this film. As someone that is into filmmaking and a total nerd about directing, cameras, technical details, I can’t get enough of watching and listening to these guys talk about how everything came together just right for this masterpiece to happen. I can’t say enough about this film, its actors and all the people involved in making it. Truly something not to be rivaled and we will probably never see anything close to it ever again.

Used for larger advertising spaces, normally posted on walls, perfect for huge movie theatres the drive-in, where people could see them from a distance. From the 1970's on, three-sheets were sometimes printed in one piece and issued as "international" versions to be used abroad.
