An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian Two-Panel (known in Italy as a "4 Fogli") Movie Poster (2p; measures 55" x 78") (Learn More) La Verite (released in the U.S. in 1961 under its original title and also as "The Truth"), the 1960 Henri-Georges Clouzot French/Italian courtroom lawyer legal crime sexploitation melodrama ("Can you take the shock of the truth?"; "Here is a new Brigitte Bardot rising to great dramatic heights! Directed by H.G,. Clouzot - master of suspense!") starring Brigitte Bardot ("in her most explosive role..."), Charles Vanel, Paul Meurisse (billed as "with the participation of Paul Meurisse"), Louis Seigner ("Member of the Comedie Francaise"), Marie-Jose Nat, and Sami Frey 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 poster was consigned to us along with a paper snipe (obviously studio-created), which has the producer's name on it. Since the producer's name is already printed on the poster, it is somewhat of a mystery why this was done. The only logical explanation we can imagine is that we notice that on the printed poster, the producer's name is exactly the same size as that of the director and the star, whereas on the snipe, the producer's name is in a clearly smaller typeface! We would imagine that either Clouzot or Bardot had in their contract that their names had to be the largest on the poster, and apparently they forced the studio to print these snipes to correct that mistake. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this partially Italian movie! Also note that this Italian two-panel poster was printed in 2 sections (designed to overlap) and when combined, the poster measures 55" x 78". Condition: fair to good. There are tears, separation, and areas of paper loss on parts of many foldlines and there is masking tape on the back of parts of some foldlines. Learn More about condition grades
