About your life... About your family... About your work... About your doubts... About your dreams... You will see yourself in the leading role as though you were looking in a mirror... This is your film - Federico Fellini"; "This is the story of Guido and his wife and his mistress and the innocent beckoning young girl and all the women in his life, past and present and how they became a living part of his erotic fantasies"; "The story of a man and his imagination - and the women who are so wickedly a part of it!"; after Fellini's 8th movie [plus 1/3 of one movie, plus 1/7 of another movie, which in his mind equaled 8 1/2 movies] he then had difficulty finding a suitable next movie, and he ended up making a movie about that search for a suitable next movie, and he called that movie "8 1/2"!) starring Marcello Mastroianni, Claudia Cardinale, Anouk Aimee, Sandra Milo, Rosella Falk, Barbara Steele, and Madeleine Lebeau 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 is a "country of origin" poster for this partially Italian movie! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thin paper backing, it can be sent rolled (however, it will be rolled with the image outward, because paperbacked posters should always be rolled that way, while linen posters are always rolled with the image inward). Note that it is difficult to accurately date Italian posters, and some unmarked re-release posters can be extremely difficult to distinguish from first releases, so please bear that in mind before you place a bid. We used our best information to date this poster, but we can't always guarantee that the Italian posters we sell are not from an unmarked re-release, but this will only prove to be true in a very tiny number of cases. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster was folded in half and there were creases and scuffs across that fold. There were some tiny tears in the top border. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The restorer paperbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting (and any restorer could easily touch them up without re-backing the poster).
