Note that this movie was very political, and it was unusual in that both the left wing of the United States and the right wing strongly criticized the movie, and it was a failure at the box office, and was withdrawn soon after its first release!

Artist: Franco Fiorenzi Important Added Info: Note that it is difficult to accurately date Italian posters, and some unmarked re-release posters can be extremely difficult to distinguish from first releases, so please bear that in mind before you place a bid. We used our best information to date this poster, but we can't always guarantee that the Italian posters we sell are not from an unmarked re-release, but this will only prove to be true in a very tiny number of cases.
