An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Advance Japanese "B1" Advance Movie Poster (29x41; measures approximately 28 1/2" x 40 1/2") (Learn More)

Ran, the classic 1985 Akira Kurosawa (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) French/Japanese samurai warrior action melodrama (based on the play 'King Lear' by William Shakespeare) starring Tatsuya Nakadai, Akira Terao, Jinpachi Nezu, Daisuke Ryu, Pita (billed as "Peter"; that IS his entire name!), Mieko Harada, and Yoshiko Miyazaki

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare advance Japanese B1 poster (note the "1985 6 1" at the top of the poster). Also note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this partially Japanese movie! Finally, note that this is a rare Japanese "B1" poster that measures approximately 28 1/2" x 40 1/2"! "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 is a 2" tear in the middle of the left edge that has been repaired with tape from the back and a small amount of black marker from the front. There are minor creases and scuffs throughout the poster.
