An Original Vintage Unfolded Japanese "B2" Movie Poster (measures 21" x 29 1/4" [53 x 74 cm]) (Learn More) Close Encounters of the Third Kind, the classic 1977 Steven Spielberg (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) science fiction (sci-fi) alien UFO melodrama ("Close Encounter of the First Kind: Sighting of a UFO"; "Close Encounter of the Second Kind: Physical Evidence"; "Close Encounter of the Third Kind: Contact"; "We are not alone."; "Every 15 minutes, someone sees a UFO"; "Written and Directed by Steven Spielberg") starring Richard Dreyfuss, Teri Garr, Melinda Dillon (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Francois Truffaut (the famous French director, in an acting role; "as Lacombe"), Bob Balaban, and Cary Guffey (as the little boy). Note that Paul Schrader wrote the original screenplay for this movie, but Steven Spielberg made many changes to Schrader's script. Finally, Schrader asked that his name be taken off the screenplay, and since it had to have someone's name on it, Spielberg put his own name on the screenplay! 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: Note that this poster was produced by Toho, and while some theaters may have used it to promote the film, it was designed to be sold to the public, but only at theaters during the first release of the film and NOT outside of the theaters or after the end of the first release (similar to the rare "Starfall" Japanese commercial poster for Return of the Jedi). It is far more rare than theatrical posters for the film! Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has a partial diagonal crease in the bottom right corner, extending into the end of the title and many creases scattered down the right 1" of the poster. Learn More about condition grades
