Note that this movie was made by Kenji Mizoguchi, who had earlier made the highly regarded "Ugetsu" and "Sansho the Baliff", and this movie also received very positive reviews and won some awards. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Waldemar Swierzy Important Added Info: Note that this item contains some nudity, so we have placed a white bar over those areas for those who are bothered by such images. Of course, the actual item does not have the white bars. Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. The poster has a few tears of varying lengths around the edges (especially at upper center and there is small paper loss in the upper right corner.) It is otherwise in pretty good condition and the defects mostly affect blue paper, so after a relatively simple linenbacking the poster will look great! Learn More about condition grades
