An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian One-Panel (known in Italy as a "2 Fogli") Movie Poster (1p; measures 39" x 55") (Learn More) Il Deserto Rosso (released in the U.S. in 1965 as "Red Desert"), the classic 1964 Michelangelo Antonioni Italian family dysfunctional relationship mental illness melodrama ("Michelangelo Antonioni in his first color film.") starring Monica Vitti, Richard Harris ("[star of 'This Sporting Life']"), Carlo Chionetti (billed as "Carlo De Pra"), Rita Renoir, Xenia Valderi, and Aldo Grotti. Note that this is what's known as a "difficult" movie! It is slow moving with lots of talking and little action of any kind. But, on repeated viewings, it often grows on the viewer until they often consider it to be a masterpiece! Other movies like this include "The Passion of Joan of Arc", "Last Year at Marienbad" and several others. If you like the movies like this you have seen you should definitely also watch this one! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: I have inquired among collectors and dealers of Italian movie posters, and I have not found anyone who has seen another example of this striking poster in this size! Also note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this Italian movie! Condition: very good to fine. There is 2" of separation at the top and bottom center crossfolds, and slight separation at the other crossfolds. There are some creases on the foldlines and some tiny creases and tears in the borders. The poster has never had any restoration! Learn More about condition grades
