At love without meaning. At murder without guilt. At the dazzle and the madness of London today."; "Two fanatical teenagers on David Hemmings in the hope that he will use them as models."; about a successful photographer who feels completely detached from his photographs of violence and pain until he takes a photo of a couple in a park and discovers a possible murder) starring Vanessa Redgrave, David Hemmings, Sarah Miles, John Castle, Jane Birkin (in her second credited movie role!), Gillian Hills, and Veruschka von Lehndorff (billed as "Verushka" in her first film role, the Russian model who is featured on most of the posters from this classic Antonioni film!), and The Yardbirds (including Jimmy Page & Jeff Beck) 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 is from the VERY first Italian release in 1967 (the poster is dated 1967). When this movie first came out, the original poster campaign had this photographic image, but when the movie became a major sensation, new posters were created with a striking image by Ercole Brini. Since the movie was never out of release during that time, most collectors do not consider the artwork poster a re-release, but this photographic poster pre-dates that release, and this poster is extremely rare. Note that this is a "country of origin" poster for this partially Italian movie! Also note that this Italian two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: very good.
