An Original 1955 (from the first release of this movie in France) Vintage Theatrical Folded French "Affiche" Movie Poster (23x32; measures 23 3/4" x 31 1/2" [60 x 80 cm]) (Learn More) La Donna del Fiume (released in the U.S. in 1956 as "Woman of the River"), the 1954 Mario Soldati Italian/French crime melodrama ("Sophia Loren is all woman in Woman of the River") starring Sophia Loren ("The anAtomic Bomb from Italy"), Gerard Oury, Lise Bourdin, Rik Battaglia, Giorgio Bassani, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Florestano Vancini, Antonio Altoviti, and Mario Soldati. Note that this is one of the many early movies that Sophia Loren appeared in in the early 1950s. After it was released in 1954, she did not gain widespread international notice until the following year, and it was not until 1956 that this was released in the U.S., as "Woman of the River". After she became a superstar in 1957 with "Boy on a Dolphin", the movie was released again in the U.S. So there are both 1956 and 1957 U.S. posters from this movie, and it had an entirely different ad campaign each time! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Georges Kerfyser Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare "country of origin" poster for this partially French movie. We have only auctioned one in all our years of auctioning (and that was in 2008)! Also note that we are auctioning an ultra-rare teaser French medium poster for this movie in a separate auction. Finally note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. There is some darkening around the edges and foldlines, typical of vintage French posters. It has a few small tears around the edges that affect only the blank borders and there is some tiny paper loss at the crossfold. It has some minor border separation in the upper edge of the vertical foldline. The ultra-rare French poster is otherwise in pretty good condition and after a simple linenbacking it will look absolutely fantastic (although many collectors would be more than happy to display this poster as is)!
