Original Paramount Pictures Twenty Four Sheet (9'x20'). Very fine condition.
This is an original Paramount Pictures Twenty Four Sheet Poster (9'x20') for the Roger Vadim sci-fi fantasy, BARBARELLA (1968) starring Jane Fonda, John Phillip Law, and Milo O'Shea. Based on a popular French comic strip of Jean-Claude Forest and cleverly adapted for the screen by Terry Southern, this film has been styled one of the "trash classics" of the 1960s. Barbarella (Fonda) is a 41st Century astronaut who teams up with a blind angel named Pygar (Law) to find the evil Durand Durand (O'Shea). This was the first science fiction hero from comics to be adapted into a feature film instead of a serial like Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers, and the film has some of the most bizarre and surreal images of the period. This original twenty-four sheet poster is in very fine condition.
