Auction History Result 5e661 SHOUT English 1sh '78 Alan Bates, Susannah York, cool sexy artwork! Date Sold 5/21/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded English One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures approximately 27" x 40") (Learn More) The Shout, the 1978 Jerzy Skolimowski English mental institution insane asylum fantasy horror melodrama ("Based on the story by Robert Graves"; about a doctor at a mental institution who talks to a patient who tells him why he is there; in flashback, you see his story of spending many years in the Australian Outback, learning mystical techniques, including a "Shout" that can kill people, and how he used those techniques to terrorize a man and his wife; throughout the movie, you don't know if the story the patient is telling is real or fantasized) starring Alan Bates, Susannah York, John Hurt, Robert Stephens, Tim Curry, and Julian Hough. By all accounts, this is somewhat of a "forgotten masterpiece" by director Jerzy Skolimowski. It adapted from a 1929 novel by Robert Graves, and it has the very top English actors of that time, and it is reminiscent of films like "The Wicker Man" and "Don't Look Now", which are horror films in one sense, but intended for viewers who want more out of movies! Sadly, it is rarely mentioned, and it appears it had a very limited U.S. release (and we have never auctioned even one U.S. movie paper item from it!). 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 is a rare "country of origin" poster for this English movie! Condition: very good.
