Romancing The Seurat

Here’s a little Georges Seurat Impressionistic-inspired charmer for the 1979 film, A Little Romance.

Seurat, you might remember, was given the Sondheim treatment for his musical adaptation, Sunday In The Park With George, based on the famous Seurat painting…

Italian Bergmans

I know when most cinephiles think of Ingmar Bergman, they think of brilliant, but deep, dark, and depressing black and white films…and maybe some quips from Woody Allen. But leave it up to these Italian movie posters to see the bright and beautiful side in his work!

Breakfast With Blake

What I forgot to mention in yesterday’s post about the passing of Blake Edwards is that pre-dating his extensive comedy résumé, he also directed Breakfast At Tiffany’s, undoubtedly one of the most well known movie poster images of our time…

Movie Poster Smackdown!

Every once in a while, I like to do a poster breakdown á la Posteritati where we compare and contrast the different U.S. and International versions of a past film release. And this time up it’s Two Weeks In September (1967), starring Brigitte Bardot.

Personally, my favorite is the Argentinean version (lower left) with the UK one-sheet (lower right) a close runner-up — but you gotta admire the fearlessness of the Polish version (top, far right) for going totally abstract like those Polish beauties tend to do!

Poster Ripoff?

Looking over all these French movie posters recently has gotten me googly-eyed…Is it just my visual paranoia or does this cheesy 80’s teen rom com with John Cusack rip off a 1968 foreign cult classic?

New Woody

Here’s the new one-sheets for Woody Allen’s latest, You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger (via MoviePosterDB)…

Old Woody

But wait, you can’t forget the classics — even if they’re all in black-and-white!

Aniston Meets Streisand!

The Internets have been on fire with pics of Jennifer Aniston doing her best Barbra Streisand for Harper’s Bazaar. Although I never thought there was much of a resemblance between the two, it’s hard not to see the similarities in the types of films they’ve both chosen to do over the years — especially when it comes to the looks of their one-sheets!

Remake Monday: Bedazzled!

Raquel Welch (1967) vs. Liz Hurley (2000)…
