GIULIETTA E ROMEO (1964) 11434 Riccardo Freda Director Movie Poster

Original U.S. One-Sheet Poster (27x41) Folded Fine Plus Condition

Shakespeare's drama of star-crossed lovers, one of the great tragedies of any age, and beloved by audiences all over the world has been filmed countless times. In 1964, Italian director Riccardo Freda made this version with Geronimo Meyneir as Romeo and Rosemary Dexter as Juliet. The studio was Discentro and the film was distributed in the United States by World Entertainment in 1968. Freda loved Shakespeare, but this was freely adapted - very freely. We suggest reading the wikipedia article on this film. The film was not released in the United States until 1968, sparse competition for the Franco Zeffirelli version, released that same year, that was a Shakespeare primer for a whole generation of late boomers. This is the U.S. one-sheet, and it is folded. We have graded it in fine plus condition. MovieArt Austin guarantees that this poster is a vintage, authentic U.S. one-sheet for this film. MovieArt Austin does not sell reproductions.
