An Original 1965 Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Carry On Cleo, the 1964 (released in the U.S. in 1965) Gerald Thomas English Egyptian historical sexploitation comedy ("Bedlam on the Nile!"; "She had lotions... And potions... And motions!"; "The funniest film since 54 B.C."; "The greatest comedy since 54 B.C."; "Special Roar Show Engagement"; "While the characters and events in this story are based on actual characters and events, certain liberties have been taken with Cleopatra"; "in Exoticolor"; "He came ... he saw... he tinkered!"; "He wanted to rest... on his laurels"; "Cleopatra's philter made him smoke!"; "The Forum was against him!"; "Cleo shows Antony her asp!"; "He guarded Caesar, with a mean and angry look!"; "He had notions.. about her motions!"; "'Watch it Cleo..... if anyone should grasp your asp - they could be badly bitten!!!'"; very loosely based on the play by William Shakespeare) starring Sidney James (as Mark Antony), Kenneth Williams (as Julius Caesar), Kenneth Connor, Charles Hawtrey, Jim Dale, Joan Sims (as Calpurnia), Amanda Barrie (in the title role as Cleopatra), and Tanya Binning (billed on Australian posters as "with Australia's own lovely Tanya Binning"). Note that this was one of a very popular series of 30 "Carry On..." sexploitation movies that were made in England between 1958 (the first one was "Carry On Sergeant") and 1978 (at that point, it became a TV series, and there was one final theatrical movie in 1992)! 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 this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good to very good. There is faint scuffing in the solid colored areas. This is a fairly common printing defect on posters of this era (it had something to do with they were printed in 1965). It is a printing defect, but it significantly detracts from the poster.
