ORCHESTRA REHEARSAL (1979) 7576

Original Gaumont / New Yorker Films One Sheet. Folded. Very Fine. Art by Bonhomme.

Original Gaumont/New Yorker Films One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Federico Fellini pseudo-documentary, ORCHESTRA REHEARSAL (1978) starring Balduin Baas, Clara Colosimo, Elizabeth Labi, and Ronaldo Bonacchi. One of the finest make-believe documentaries ever made, this film tells the story of the members of an orchestra as they assemble for rehearsal in a medieval Roman chapel. But the film moves from realism to pure hyperbole when it degenerates into major pandemonium by the end of the film. The music score by Nino Rota is excellent as always; indeed, this score was perhaps more important than his earlier Fellini scores. Alas, this will be the last score from Rota as he would die the following year. This original one sheet poster with artwork by Bonhomme is folded and in very fine condition.
