Viala, Andre Cheff, Gregoire Aslan, Carette, and Yves Montand (as the singing commentator!). Note that this is black comedy at its very blackest, including the snowman shown on the French and Yugoslavian posters, which the murderers have used to conceal a dead body! Also note that Yves Montand does a "singing commentary" that relates to the plot over the soundtrack, and this was used in the classic movie "High Noon" the following year.

Note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this French movie! Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster was in nice condition prior to backing with only minor border and fold wear. It was well backed and looks quite nice. Learn More about condition grades
