More Details
This is an original MGM One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Barbra Streisand romantic musical, YENTL (1983)-- starring Streisand, Mandy Patinkin, Amy Irving, and Nehemiah Persoff. Streisand both starred in and directed this "film with music" about a young girl who goes to a Jewish religious school, dressed as a boy, to receive religious instructions.

This original one sheet poster is unfolded and in near mint condition.

This was DeMille’s second time to direct this story, as his first 1923 version was a silent film. Heston was chosen for the part because of his striking physical resemblance to Michelangelo’s sculpture of Moses. Brynner was chosen because of his magnificent performance in THE KING AND I (1956).

Original Miramax Films One Sheet Poster (27×41). Rolled. Double-sided. Very fine plus condition.
More Details
This is an original Miramax Films One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Roberto Benigni Italian war comedy, LA VITA E BELLA (1997)—starring Benigni, Nicoletta Braschi, and Giorgio Cantarini. Released in America under the title LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL, this amazing film is both uplifting and depressing at the same time. The film has less to do with the Holocaust and more to do with human feelings, especially the beautiful relationship between a father and son. It is this love that drives Guido (Benigni) in his relentless efforts to make a wonderful and exciting game of the Nazi concentration camp to his young son. The film was nominated for seven Academy Awards—including Best Picture, Best Screenplay, and Best Director. The film won the Oscar for Best Actor for Benigni’s unforgettable performance and Best Foreign Language Film. This original rolled one sheet poster is double-sided and in very fine plus condition.

After witnessing the relentless horrors endured by the Jews, this seeming opportunist starts to save as many of them as he can. The film was nominated for twelve Academy Awards, including Best Actor to Neeson and Best Supporting Actor to Fiennes.

More Details

The film centers on the successful escape, masterminded by underground leader Ari Ben Canaan (Newman) of over 600 Jewish refugees from Cyprus to Palestine. Then the story turns to various underground activities in Palestine and the first Israeli and Arab conflicts following partition. Ernest Gold won the Academy Award for his haunting and emotive score.

DAVID AND BATHSHEBA (1951) 16406
Original 20th Century Fox Insert Poster (14×36). Folded. Very good condition, with a small chip out of the top border area.
More Details
Gregory Peck played Good King David tempted by the red headed siren Susan Hayward in Henry Hathway's Old Testament epic. Just before the era of CinemaScope, Twentieth Century Fox shot this film one year after MGM's QUO VADIS? had made satisfied an audience hungry for sex, big scale and Technicolor. The widescreen would usher in THE EGYPTIAN, THE ROBE, LAND OF THE PHAROAHS. But this film has something going for it in terms of script, and took in $7,000,000 in box office receipts. The poster is in very good condition, folded, with a small chip out of the top border area.
GENTLEMANS AGREEMENT (1947) 9417A
Original 20th Century Fox Title Lobby Card (11×14). Very good condition.
More Details
Original 20th Century Fox Title Lobby Card (11x14) for the Elia Kazan anti-Semitism drama, GENTLEMAN’S AGREEMENT (1947)—starring Gregory Peck, Dorothy McGuire, John Garfield, and Celeste Holm. In this excellent screenplay by Moss Hart, a reporter (Peck) pretends to be Jewish in order to cover a story about anti-Semitism, and in the process he personally discovers the true depths of bigotry and hatred. Very few films confront bigotry as intelligently as this one, because it confronts the unspoken, insensitive attitudes of the many rather than the violent and outrageous acts of a few. A “gentleman’s agreement” is made without writing or even speech and refers to the many bigots who unthinkingly assume their prejudices are universally accepted. The film was nominated for eight Academy Awards and won three Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director to Kazan, and Best Supporting Actress to Holm. The title card is classed in very good condition because of a weak upper right corner which is reinforced with paper tape and two very small border tears. Otherwise - in very fine condition - good color.

SHOAH (1985) 1996
Original New Yorker Films One Sheet Poster (27×41). Folded. Very fine plus condition.
More Details
Original New Yorker Films One Sheet Poster (27x41) for SHOAH (1985), Claude Lanzmann's remarkable documentary film of survivor recollections of The Holocaust. Shoah is the Hebrew word which describes the genocide directed against the Jewish People in Europe during World War II. Lanzmann, a French filmmaker, made this nine hour film of interviews with survivors, and it is generally considered to me the definitive Holocaust documentary film. In SHOAH, one sees few feet of the documentary footage shot of the camps, but rather the camera brings the viewer up close to people who lived through the unspeakable. I think it helpful here to relay the entry on Lanzmann from Wikipedia.com : " Claude Lanzmann (born 1925 in Paris) is a French filmmaker. Lanzmann attended the Lycée Blaise-Pascal in Clermont-Ferrand. He joined the French resistance at the age of 18 and fought in Auvergne. Lanzmann opposed the French war in Algeria and signed the 1960 antiwar petition Manifesto of the 121. Lanzmann's most renowned work is the nine-and-a-half hour documentary film Shoah (1985), which is an oral history of the Holocaust, and is broadly considered to be the foremost film on the subject. Of particular note is that Shoah is made without the use of any historical footage, and only utilizes first-person testimony from Jewish, Polish, and German individuals, and current footage of several Holocaust-related sites. Lanzmann persuaded Polish resistance fighter Jan Karski to be a witness in Shoah by calling forth—once again—his historical responsibility. Simultaneously, the complete text appeared in English translation, with introductions by Lanzmann and Simone de Beauvoir, providing multiple keys to the philosophical and linguistic preoccupations of the producers. It was also through Shoah that many viewers were first introduced to the work of American Holocaust historian Raul Hilberg. Lanzmann has disagreed, sometimes angrily, with attempts to understand the why of Hitler, stating that the evil of Hitler cannot or should not be explained and that to do so is immoral and an obscenity. Lanzmann is chief editor of the journal Les Temps Modernes, which was founded by Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. In 2009, Lanzmann published his memoirs under the title "Le lièvre de Patagonie" (The Patagonian Hare)." The American one sheet poster for this important documentary is actually scarce, due to the relatively small U.S. distribution. This slightly irregularly folded copy is in very fine plus condition.
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (1956) 8650
Original Yugoslavian 1960s Re-release Poster (20×28). Very good condition with some small tears.
More Details
This is an original Yugoslavian 1960s Re-release Poster (20x28) for the Cecil B. DeMille biblical epic, THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (1956)—starring Charlton Heston, Yul Brynner, Anne Baxter, and Edward G. Robinson. This is the story of Moses, born to slavery but raised as a son of Pharaoh, who learns of his Hebrew heritage and his divine mission as the deliverer of his people. This was DeMille’s second time to direct this story, but his first as a retelling directly of the Bible story; the 1923 version was a silent film told partially in a contemporaneous setting. Heston was chosen for the part because of his striking physical resemblance to Michelangelo’s sculpture of Moses. Brynner was chosen because of his magnificent performance in THE KING AND I (1956). Besides the outstanding acting from the major members of the cast, the film boasted a cast of literally thousands, marvelous special effects, beautifully detailed costumes, and lavish sets. The film was nominated for seven Academy Awards including Best Picture but only won the much deserved Oscar for Best Special Effects. This 20x28 Yugoslavian poster is probably a re-release poster from the sixties. Modestly priced, the poster is in very good condition with some small tears. This art is significantly different from the 1956 posters, and shows Moses in two tableau from the film -- the parting of the red sea and the idolatry of the Children of Israel before the Golden Calf. Linen backing would help this small poster. Please see our post on Linen backing and Restoration.
