Muhammad Ali, the Greatest (released in the U.S. as "Float Like a Butterfly, Sting Like a Bee"), the 1969 William Klein French boxing sports documentary featuring Muhammad Ali (Cassius Clay), Sonny Liston, Malcolm X, Jersey Joe Walcott, Stepin Fetchit, George Foreman, Don King, Joe Frazier, and rock 'n' roll (rock and roll) music group The Beatles (George Harrison, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr). Note that this documentary includes great early footage of young Muhammad Ali at his training camp and visited by The Beatles (five of the most legendary people ever at one time!). Also note that while this movie was made in France and was apparently released in the U.S. and several other countries, the ONLY movie posters we have ever auctioned from it were ones made in Italy, and even those are exceptionally rare (we have only auctioned one of each type). If anyone has seen posters from this movie from any other country, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
