“You know the name. You know the number”

Much like Daniel Craig, the role of re-invigorating the Bond movie franchise fell on to the shoulders of Pierce Brosnan in 1995 and after a six year break James Bond was back , re-imagined & re-invented (again by Martin Campbell) in the form of Pierce Brosnan…Brosnan, ably succeeded in what was a critical & commercial success & went on to play Ian Fleming’s ‘Licensed to Kill’ secret agent another four times. The original 1995 US One Sheet movie poster offered here was designed by Randi Braun & featured the photographic talents of Terry O’Neil, Keith Hamshere & George Whitear. This is the much rarer “gold” style and presents in excellent rolled (as issued) unrestored condition. Hugely collectable and desired it represents a fantastic piece of 007 movie memorabilia.

Film Description

James Bond: Goldeneye Movie Poster

“When the world is the target and the threat is real, you can still depend on one man.”

“Goldeneye“, the long-delayed debut of Pierce Brosnan as James Bond, was a film mired in MGM’s convoluted legal problems for six years, problems which had nothing to do with the 007 franchise, but which happened to fall at the worst possible time; after Timothy Dalton‘s ‘Serious Bond’ experiment, “Licence To Kill“, failed to break even in U.S. markets. Despite international grosses that made the film a profitable venture, many American critics, long grumbling that the Bond series had outlasted it’s welcome, heaped abuse on the newer, leaner direction for ‘Bond’, and it’s taciturn, less light-hearted star…and, with MGM’s decision to put the expensive series ‘on hold’ until their own legal and financial issues could be resolved, “Licence To Kill“ became the unfair ‘scapegoat’ for the delay…Much happened during the six-year hiatus; with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Communist undercurrent of many Bond films (and the subject of most of Ian Fleming‘s novels) was lost; Richard Maibaum, the series’ most prolific screenwriter, passed away, and ill health forced legendary producer Albert (‘Cubby’) Broccoli to turn over his duties to his daughter Barbara, and stepson, Michael G. Wilson (thus ending the other ‘prime’ 007 screenwriter’s script contributions); many other key production figures would retire, die, or move on; and finally, as the delay continued, Timothy Dalton, nearing 50, announced that he was no longer interested in playing James Bond (sparking rumours that Eon Productions, no longer honour-bound by the senior Broccoli’s choices, had given him ‘the boot’)…While all this opened the door for Pierce Brosnan’s long-awaited debut as 007, with a new ‘look’ and style for the franchise, whether audiences would even accept a new ‘James Bond’ adventure was in doubt…Fortunately, everything ‘worked’. Brosnan, now 42, was more ruggedly believable as 007 than he would have been, at 34, and Dame Judi Dench, as the first woman ‘M’ (referring to Bond as a “sexist, misogynist dinosaur”), proved a perfect successor to the late Bernard Lee. While the plot of the film, involving the master plan of a renegade Russian General (Gottfried John) and an assumed dead 006 (Sean Bean) to use an electronic warfare system (GoldenEye) against England was nothing new, Brosnan’s daring-do and one-liners (with humour restored to the franchise), as he proved his value in the new world ‘order’, found an audience ‘primed’ for James Bond’s return…and the welcome cameo of the series’ last original ‘regular’, “Q” (Desmond Llewelyn, 81, and as cranky as ever), cemented 007’s links to both the past and the future…James Bond’s greatest crisis, whether he still had ‘Box Office’, had been overcome, and with audience favourite Pierce Brosnan in place, his emergence into the 21st century was assured.

US Posters

LOBBY CARD
11 x 14" printed on heavy stock paper. Used as display in theatre lobbies. Originally made in sets of eight. Some sets have a title card, which contains credits and artwork, essentially a mini-poster. The remaining seven cards are coloured photographic credits and poster artwork showing different scenes from the movie.

WINDOW CARD
14 x 22" printed on heavy stock paper with the top 4-6 inches usually left blank for the local cinema owner to fill in the cinema and the date it was due to play. Largely discontinued during the 1970's.

HALF SHEET
22 x 28" printed on heavy stock paper. The image displayed is normally a smaller version of the main poster, although some do have different artworks and sometimes come in two versions.

INSERT
14 x 36" printed on heavy stock paper. Inserts usually have the same artwork as a one sheet. Popular with collectors since they are smaller and easier to frame. Normally come tri folded or rolled.

STYLE Y/FORTY BY SIXTY
40 x 60" printed on heavy stock paper. Rare since they were primarily used for major motion pictures only. Designed to be used outside the theatre, on an easel, normally at a drive-in movie theatre.

ONE-SHEET
27 x 41" printed on paper. This is the most common size of poster, intended to be displayed in a glass "marquee" case. It is the most sought after size by collectors. Since the 1980's most posters are sent to the theatre rolled and maybe slightly smaller measuring 27" by 40" and with the advent of backlit light boxes a growing number of modern movie posters are available double-sided and the more traditional single-sided.

THREE-SHEET
41 x 81" printed on paper. These were printed on two or three separate sheets designed to overlap, few survive. 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.
