Description
This magazine shown in the photo is an original copy of "Starfix," a specialized cinema magazine, well-known for its innovative tone and coverage of 1980s film news. This is the May/June 1988 double issue, No. 60-S, as indicated at the bottom of the cover. The layout features a bright red Starfix logo on a white background, accompanied by the tagline "Le mensuel du cinéma d’aujourd’hui" (Today's Cinema Monthly).
The cover, characteristic of the late 80s graphic aesthetic, features a montage of color photographs of international cinema personalities (Robert Redford, Clint Eastwood, Christopher Walken, etc.), as well as a selection of key films and events of the moment, including the 1988 Cannes Film Festival. Several red boxes highlight the main features and dossiers of the bimonthly issue: "Cannes 88," "Génération cinéma" (Cinema Generation), "Tous les films du mois" (All Films of the Month), "Best of vidéo"…
The magazine is printed on glossy paper, with a matte finish on the cover. The colors remain vibrant, particularly the red and blue that dominate the front page. The spine (not visible) is not described here, in accordance with the description policy based solely on the displayed side.
At the bottom of the cover is the mention "Mensuel - N° 60-S - Mai/Juin 1988" (Monthly - No. 60-S - May/June 1988), as well as prices in Belgian, Swiss, and Canadian francs. The barcode and the reference M 2564 - 60 S - 20.00 F are also visible on the left edge.
The photographs of personalities and film scenes, typical of Starfix's editorial approach, reinforce the retro and collector's appeal of this edition, highly sought after for its content on late 1980s cinema.
