An Original 1968 (from the first release of this movie in Japan) Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Japanese "B2" Movie Poster (measures 20 1/4" x 28 5/8" [51 x 73 cm]) (Learn More) Le Samourai (released in English-speaking countries as the original title and as "The Samurai"), the classic 1967 Jean-Pierre Melville French/Italian killer-for-hire crime film noir starring Alain Delon ("is The Godson"), Francois Perier, Nathalie Delon, Michel Boisrond, and Roger Fradet. Note that the initial release of this movie is somewhat murky. The IMDb says it played in the U.S. in January 1967, and then it was released in France in October 1967, and then had its premiere in Italy in February 1968. We would think that that first U.S. release was surely through a festival or an arthouse, because the movie did not have a major U.S. release that we are aware of until 1972, when it was re-titled "The Godson". If anyone knows more about any of this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good to fine. There is a very light horizontal crease across the poster at upper and lower center from it being stored with posters that were tri-folded. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition and it displays well. Learn More about condition grades
