Empire of the Sun, the 1987 Steven Spielberg World War II (WWII) Shanghai China family coming-of-age melodrama ("To survive in a world at war, he must find a strength greater than all the events that surround him."; "Based on the novel by J.G.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that the title area of this poster is printed on a gold foil material and is very difficult to accurately photograph, but is quite striking when viewed in person! Also note that this is a rare Japanese "B1" poster that measures 28 1/2" x 40 1/2" [72 x 103 cm]! "B1" posters are FAR more rare than "B2" posters (which measure approximately 20" x 28 1/2"), and because they are larger (similar in size to a U.S. one-sheet), they are more impressive when displayed on a wall!

Condition: good to very good. There are creases and scuff marks scattered throughout the poster (more so around the edges) and there are a few 1 1/4" and smaller tears around the edges.
