Original Polish Poster (26×33 ) for the Karel Reisz literary drama, THE FRENCH LIEUTENANT’S WOMAN (1981) starring Meryl Streep, Jeremy Irons, Leo McKern, Peter Vaughn and Liz Smith. Based on a novel by John Fowles and adapted by playwright Harold Pinter, this film told dual romantic tales, one contemporary, one historical, with the lovers portrayed by the same actors; the contemporary couple are actors portraying the 19th century characters in a film under production. The artwork on this Polish poster depicts an abstraction of Streep as the French Lieutenant’s Woman — almost a “goth” figure by contemporary standards. Art is by Wieslaw Wakuski. Very Fine.
