Journal d'un Cure de Campagne (released in 1954 in the U.S. as "The Diary of a Country Priest"), the 1951 Robert Bresson French religious mystery melodrama (about a young priest who is assigned to a rural parish, and the difficulties he encounters in being accepted by the local people) starring Claude Laydu, Jean Riveyre, Nicole Maurev, Andre Guibert, Martine Lemaire, and Rachel Berendt
If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned this poster, which is a "country of origin" poster for this French movie, once before! Note that this is from the "C.F.R." release, which was also from 1951, but this is not the release that was for the large cities. It was for the rural areas, with 16mm prints of the movie, and it has entirely different artwork from the French posters that were created for the large cities.

Condition: very good. The poster was folded in half an extra time and has some very tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss on small parts of the borders. There are a few faint brown stains scattered in the poster, more so in the borders.
