Appears in Vintage Hollywood Posters 7 CATALOG SOLD OUT The image at right appears in the auction catalog we published as shown above and was sold long ago and we do NOT have it available for purchase. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Italian Photobusta Movie Poster (measures 26 1/2" x 36 1/2") (Learn More) Il Deserto Rosso (released in the U.S. in 1965 as "Red Desert"), the classic 1964 Michelangelo Antonioni Italian family dysfunctional relationship mental illness melodrama ("Michelangelo Antonioni in his first color film.") starring Monica Vitti, Richard Harris ("[star of 'This Sporting Life']"), Carlo Chionetti (billed as "Carlo De Pra"), Rita Renoir, Xenia Valderi, and Aldo Grotti. Note that this is what's known as a "difficult" movie! It is slow moving with lots of talking and little action of any kind. But, on repeated viewings, it often grows on the viewer until they often consider it to be a masterpiece! Other movies like this include "The Passion of Joan of Arc", "Last Year at Marienbad" and several others. If you like the movies like this you have seen you should definitely also watch this one!

Important Added Info: Note that this Italian photobusta measures 26 1/2" x 36 1/2" and that it is linenbacked. Also note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this Italian cult favorite! Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and the restorer did a good job, but you can see signs of the restoration from inches away (since most people look at posters framed on a wall from at least a few feet away, we don't feel this is a defect, but we feel it should be noted). See below for this poster's pre-restoration condition (we are the only major auction company we know of that shares this information with our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). good to very good. There were many small tears and creases down the vertical foldline and a lesser number in the horizontal foldline. There were many small tears down the right border. There were light creases and scuffs throughout the image. The poster was well backed, and you can see traces of the restoration, but it is truly not distracting. Learn More about condition grades
