Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded 30x40 (Learn More) Chariots of Fire, the classic 1981 Hugh Hudson (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) English Olympic running track-and-field sports melodrama ("Chosen for the Royal Film Performance 1981"; "This is a story of two men who run... not to run... but to prove something to the world. They will sacrifice anything to achieve their goals... Except their honor."; "With wings on their heels and hope in their hearts."; "A story that deserves to be told"; "Harold Abrahams and Eric Liddell - two men chasing dreams of glory"; "Screenplay by Colin Welland"; winner of the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Ben Cross (as Harold Abrahams), Ian Charleson (as Eric Liddell), Nigel Havers, Cheryl Campbell, Alice Krige, ("Guest Stars") Lindsay Anderson, Dennis Christopher, Nigel Davenport, Brad Davis, Peter Egan, Sir John Gielgud, Ian Holm (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; as Sam Mussabini), and Patrick Magee 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: This poster was never folded after it was printed (this is called unfolded or "rolled")! Condition: fine. There is EXTREMELY faint scuffing in the center of the poster.. NOTE: This 30x40, plus several others that eMoviePoster is selling this week came from a most extraordinary collection. They were purchased by a collector when these films were issued and have been carefully stored under ideal conditions ever since! The result is that these posters are as near to perfect as any 30x40s we have ever sold (or just about any movie posters for that matter!)! If you purchase any of these, you will see that they truly look as though they might have just been printed (although each may have a few minute defects, which you would have to pore over the poster to find). Just finding these titles in a 30x40 size might take years, as they are far more rare than the corresponding one-sheet. To find them in this condition might take one the rest of their life! In the past few months we have sold other 30x40s (and 40x60s, one-sheets, inserts, and lobby card sets) for this collector, and they have sold for far more than they usually do in lesser condition, as collectors have correctly realized that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
