Last Tango In Paris (1973) Original Movie Poster

United Artists Original Half-Sheet Poster (22x28), folded, in fine plus condition, for the film LAST TANGO IN PARIS (1973) starring Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider. One of the most explicitly sexual - and therefore controversial - films of its time, the movie generated an enormous amount of press, both from those who thought it was incredibly titillating and from those who thought it was unbearably boring. The truth about the film lies somewhere between these two poles. Brando never bores, even when he is playing boring. The film is neatly directed by Bernardo Bertolucci. The young actress in the film, Maria Schneider, has famously said that being in the movie was very deleterious to her, and perhaps it was. The subject was sex, sex and more sex. It's a bit difficult to see how the sex was so shocking to 1973 audiences, and yet the movie is still disturbing today. There are two different half-sheets for the film, and this one is a photographic style (A). MovieArt Original Film Posters in Austin, Texas guarantees that this poster is authentic..
