An Original 1998 (from the first theatrical release) Vintage Theatrical Unfolded One-Sheet Movie Poster (27" x 39") (Learn More) South: Ernest Shackleton and the Endurance Expedition, the 1920 Frank Hurley Australian/English South Pole Antarctica adventure docudrama (about the 1914-1916 expedition to Antarctica and the subsequent rescue of men trapped in their boat by the ice; "Not a life lost and we have been through Hell.") starring Ernest Shackleton, Captain F. Worsley, Lieutenant J. Stenhouse, Captain L. Hussey, and Dr. McIlroy. Note that this early silent movie was restored by the British Film Institute in 1998 and given a theatrical release! In his day, Shackleton was a famous explorer on a par with Scott and Byrd, but he died in 1922, and he soon became forgotten as an historical footnote, but his story was revived in 1998, along with this movie. His first expedition to the Antarctic resulted in the ship being trapped by ice and crushed, and yet remarkably, everyone survived! Note that in addition to this movie, there was also a U.S. documentary made the following year called "The Bottom of the World", and posters on both are so rare that it can be difficult to know if they are from one movie or the other. If anyone has more information about either of these movies or this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this one-sheet measures 27" x 39". Please do not bid on this poster thinking it is 27" x 40". Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
