Date Sold 12/10/2015Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 6 Original Vintage Folded French Special Movie Posters (measure 15" x 20 3/4" [38 x 53 cm]) (Learn More) La Ronde, the 1950 (released in the U.S. in 1954) Max Ophuls French romantic melodrama (the movie has a clever "circular" format where there is a series of characters in a series of segments, and each new segment introduces a new character who has an affair with a character from the past segments) starring Simone Signoret, Anton Walbrook, Simone Simon, Serge Reggiani, Danielle Darrieux, Daniel Gelin, Odette Joyeux, Fernand Gravey, Jean-Louis Barrault (billed as "J.L. Barrault"), Isa Miranda, and Gerard Philipe. The "La Ronde" of the title refers to a merry-go-round that appears in the movie, but it also refers to the way romances evolve in a circular fashion, as illustrated by the segments of the movie! Note that this movie was remade by Roger Vadim in 1964 with Jane Fonda in the lead role (it was called "Circle of Love" when it was released in the U.S.). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a pretty amazing set of 6 French posters that have each of the letters of the title on a separate poster (the "LA" is on a single poster). Obviously, theaters could display them side by side, or vertically, or perhaps in a "circular" fashion, once they would be attached to something, which would be reflective of the "circular" nature of the plot. We would think that virtually none of these posters would have survived, especially since they are on thin paper that would be damaged easily, and would likely not be removed after they were attached to walls. We have never seen or heard of this set of posters before. Condition: very good to fine. Each of the six posters is in pretty nice condition, with very minor wear. They were once taped together from the reverse, because each has a white paper tape on the back of either the left or right borders. Learn More about condition grades
