If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this film was very popular in Italy but also very controversial. It was released in December of 1972, and in early 1973 legal proceedings were begun to ban the film and charge the director with obscenity. The legal battle was quite lengthy, and in 1976 the Italian Supreme Court concluded that all copies of the film were to be destroyed (though some were preserved by the National Film Library), and Bertolucci was served with a four-month suspended sentence in prison and had his civil rights revoked for five years. In 1987, the ban was finally lifted and the film was re-released in Italy. We believe that the poster offered here is from after the first release but before the film was banned in 1976. Condition: good to very good. poster has darkened somewhat along the foldlines and around the edges as is common with older Italian posters; minor separation at some of the crossfolds; minor creases throughout the poster Learn More about condition grades
