La Guerre des Boutons (released in the U.S. in 1964 as "War of the Buttons"), the 1962 Yves Robert French juvenile France schoolboy war comedy ("People who laugh...won't blush!"; a parable about the meaning of war; a group of young French schoolboys try to steal each other's buttons, and they have all sorts of clever schemes, including showing up to "battle" naked, so there are no buttons to steal, and inducing one of the boys to become a traitor to "his side"; when the traitorous boy is discovered and punished, he tells his parents he was attacked by bullies, and several of the children are sent to reform school) starring Jacques Dufilho, Yvette Etievant, Michel Galabru, Michele Meritz, Jean Richard, Pierre Tchernia, and Pierre Trabaud. Note that this was re-made in 1994 with the same title!
Artist: Savignac
Important Added Info: Note that this is a "country of origin" poster for this French movie! Also note that this French two-panel measures 61 3/4" x 92 1/4" [157 x 234 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Finally, note that this French two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap.

Condition: very good. The poster was attached to a wall with many small pieces of tape on the back of the borders of each section, and also on the back of several crossfolds, and much of it lightly bleeds through to the front.
