Description
Original movie poster, featuring the film "The Brotherhood" starring Kirk Douglas. The poster shows a central color scene where two men stand face to face, one holding a rifle, in a wooded outdoor setting. The graphics use a realistic photograph, typical of 1960s movie posters. The dominant colors are brown, blue, and white, with strong contrasts that emphasize the visual style of the era. Storage folds are clearly visible across the entire surface, indicating original folding for display in cinemas.
The upper part of the poster prominently displays "KIRK DOUGLAS" in large black letters, followed by the film's title "LES FRÈRES SICILIENS" in vivid red. Also mentioned are the other main actors: Alex Cord, Irene Papas, and Luther Adler. The rest of the text, in black and red typography, specifies production by Martin Ritt, music by Lalo Schifrin, the "Technicolor" mention, as well as the period Paramount logo.
The visual occupies the upper half, with a close-up photograph, while the lower half is reserved for credits and production information, in a layout typical of French posters from the late 1960s. No additional decorative elements are visible; the poster relies on the impact of the photographic visual and the legibility of the information.
Some handling marks and transversal and longitudinal folds are observed, which are classic for this type of old poster. No snags, tears, or major stains are visible on the displayed side. The print remains clear, with colors well-preserved despite a slight patinated effect due to age.
This type of poster is sought after for its faithful representation of the 1960s cinematic style and the presence of iconic actors. The format announced in the keywords is 120x160 cm, standard for French cinema posters of this period.
