20th Century Fox Original Italian 39x55 Poster Unbacked Fine Plus Condition

Original Italian Duofolio Poster (39x55) for the George Roy Hill western, BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID (1969) starring Paul Newman, Robert Redford, and Katharine Ross. The charming story is about two shrewd outlaws who rob trains and banks, finally deciding to flee to Bolivia. This highly individual and stylistic western was the smash hit of 1969 because of the pairing of Newman and Redford. The outstanding screenplay by William Goldman had just the right mix of comedy, wit, and adventure. Much credit should also be given to director Hill and cinematographer Conrad Hall, who gave the film a great look of the "Old West." The film was nominated for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. The film won four Oscars (the most of any film that year), including Best Screenplay to Goldman. Art by Piero Ermanno Iaia. MovieArt Austin guarantees that this poster is an authentic Italian 30x55 for this film. MovieArt Austin does not sell reproductions.
