THE DAY THE FISH CAME OUT (1967) 1143

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Original Polish Poster (26×38) for the Michael Cacoyannis spoof, THE DAY THE FISH CAME OUT (1967) starring Tom Courtenay, Sam Wanamaker, Colin Blakely, Candice Bergen and Ian Ogilvy. Some atomic weapons are accidentally unloaded in flight near a primitive Greek island. The pilots of the plane are sent in on reconnaissance, the townspeople behave bizarrely, the tourist are restless, Gays seem to be everywhere and Candice Bergen is blonde and tan! The poster design features a stunning primitive image of a two-headed fish, one colorful and alive, the other black and dripping with decay. Art on this poster is by Jerzy Flisak. Condition is very good. Could use linen backing.

THE TROJAN WOMEN (1971) 4883

full.thetrojanwomen program 4883

Original Cinerama Releasing Corporation 23-page Program (8.5×11) for the Michael Cacoyannis adaptation of the ancient Greek play by Euripides, THE TROJAN WOMEN (1971) starring Katharine Hepburn, Vanessa Redgrave, Genevieve Bujold, and Irene Papas. Euripides was the most popular poet of the ancient world, and this play is a stunning indictment of imperialist aggression at the time that Athens was fighting Sparta in the Peloponnesian War (431—404 B.C.). The play captures the extreme pain and anguish of the women of Troy after the city has fallen to the Greeks. The women weep over their lost city, their dead husbands and sons, and their lost honor as they are led away as Greek slaves. This is certainly one of the most powerful anti-war films ever made at the time of the war in Vietman. This rare program has 32 photos, a director’s note, biographies of all major actors, actresses, and director Cacoyannis. This original program is in good condition.
