Original MGM Style A One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Peter Glenville political drama, THE COMEDIANS (1967) starring Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor, Alec Guinness, Peter Ustinov, and Lillian Gish.

Burton plays a cynical hotel owner whose fatalism grows stronger as he watches Haiti sink into violent barbarism. This was the seventh of eleven films Burton and Taylor did together, and this film stands out because of the dramatic quality, literacy, and superb acting performances all around. This original style A one sheet poster is folded and in very fine condition.
