Original Italian Four-Foglio Poster (79x55) Folded Fine Plus to Very Fine Art by Giorgio Olivetti
Original United Artists Italian 79x55 poster for the Billy Wilder cross-dressing comedic masterpiece, SOME LIKE IT HOT (1959) starring Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis, and Jack Lemmon. Some critics have dubbed this film to be the greatest Hollywood comedy ever filmed. Monroe as "Sugar" creates one of her most loved and memorable characters, but Lemmon and Curtis steal the show when they decide to become "Daphne" and "Josephine" and join her in an all-girl band in order to evade the mob and get to Florida. This gender-bending comedy, way ahead of its time, was nominated for six Academy Awards including Best Actor for Lemmon and Best Director for Wilder. It won the Oscar for Best Costume Design. The more common two-foglio Italian poster has completely different art than this large poster, which is perhaps the best poster on the film world-wide and is quite rare. The poster is folded and the condition is very fine for a poster of it's size. There may be very minor issues, and there is some toning or browning at the top horizontal fold. Nevertheless, and extraordinary poster for one of the most famous Hollywood movies. The art is by Giorgio Olivetti. MovieArt Austin guarantees that this poster is authentic
