An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Belgian Movie Poster (measures 14" x 22") (Learn More) La Citta si Difende (released in the U.S. as "Four Ways Out"), the 1951 Pietro Germi Italian crime thriller ("Four Ways Out and each a man trap!"; an episodic story of four "losers" who join together to commit crimes; Lollobrigida is top billed because she is a sexy young woman, but she is not the star of the movie by any means!) starring Gina Lollobrigida, Renato Baldini, Cosetta Greco, Paul Muller, Fausto Tozzi, and Enzo Maggio. Note that master Italian director Federico Fellini wrote one of the segments of the movie (both the story and the screenplay). Also note that one of the segments of the movie has the four protagonists robbing a soccer stadium's box office while the game is in progress. Stanley Kubrick used this same idea in his classic movie "The Killing", switching it to a race track, but there are no other similarities beyond the basic idea.

Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had pinholes, creases, smudges, and a couple of small tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, and looks great! Learn More about condition grades
