An Undated (probably 1960s) Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Italian Locandina Movie Poster (measures 11 1/2" x 27 1/4") (Learn More) 8 1/2 (released in the U.S. as "Federico Fellini's Eight and a Half"), the classic 1963 Federico Fellini (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) Italian/French autobiographical melodrama ("This film talks about you... About your life... About your family... About your work... About your doubts... About your dreams... You will see yourself in the leading role as though you were looking in a mirror... This is your film - Federico Fellini"; "This is the story of Guido and his wife and his mistress and the innocent beckoning young girl and all the women in his life, past and present and how they became a living part of his erotic fantasies"; "The story of a man and his imagination - and the women who are so wickedly a part of it!"; after Fellini's 8th movie [plus 1/3 of one movie, plus 1/7 of another movie, which in his mind equaled 8 1/2 movies] he then had difficulty finding a suitable next movie, and he ended up making a movie about that search for a suitable next movie, and he called that movie "8 1/2"!) starring Marcello Mastroianni, Claudia Cardinale, Anouk Aimee, Sandra Milo, Rosella Falk, Barbara Steele, and Madeleine Lebeau NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that while we cannot be 100% certain, we believe that this poster is from a 1960s re-release and not the first release of the film. This poster is missing the "Angelo Rizzoli presenta" which is on the first release posters, and the cast list has changed (Cardinale is 5th billed on this poster instead of 2nd, and the lowered-billed cast are missing). Condition: good to very good. Prior to linenbacking, the poster had fine surface paper loss on the folds and some small tears in the right border, including a 3" semi-circular tear in Mastroianni's right cheek. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer linenbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not at all distracting (and any restorer could easily touch them up without re-backing the poster).
