Original 20th Century-Fox One Sheet Poster for the Henry Koster comedy, DEAR BRIGITTE (1965) starring James Stewart, Fabian, Glynis Johns, Cindy Carol, Bill Mumy, and Brigitte Bardot. The main theme of this film has Professor Leaf (Stewart) granting the wish of his 8-year-old, math whiz son Erasmus (Mumy) to meet French film starlet Brigitte Bardot. This was Stewart’s third and final comedy made at Fox during the 1960s under the direction of Henry Koster. The movie was going to be called ERASMUS WITH FRECKLES, after the book on which it was based. But Brigitte Bardot only agreed to appear in the film on the condition that her name did not appear on the credits or any promotional materials. The only way for the producers to capitalize on the popularity of Bardot was by changing the title to alert the audience that she was in the film. With Jack Davis artwork, this original one sheet poster is folded and in fine condition—with a small interior tear and some pinholes. This poster would line-back nicely.

Original French One-Panel Poster (47×63) for the Jean-Luc Godard dramatic masterpiece, LE MEPRIS (1963) starring Brigitte Bardot, Michel Piccoli, and Jack Palance. LE MEPRIS is a profound and complex film about filmmaking in the 1960′s. Bardot gives a magnificent performance as Camille Javal, the wife of an aspiring screenwriter Paul Javal (Piccoli). “Contempt” was the US title of this film, and Jack Palance delivers a stunning performance as the “contemptuous” producer Jeremy Prokosch, whom Bardot initially disdains but comes to like more than her screenwriter husband. Most interesting for cineastes today is the appearance of director Fritz Lang as a film director. A corner was torn off of the poster. The small fragment was retained and reattached to the poster in the linen backing. Beautifullly linen backed. A very nice example of this poster
