Original Italian Four-Foglio Poster (79x55) Folded Good Used Condition

Original Italian Four-Foglio Poster (79x55) for the Henri-Georges Clouzot film LA VERITE (1960). The film stars Brigitte Bardot, Paul Meurisse, and Charles Vanel. The Italian title is LA VERITAL (THE TRUTH). The film was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film, but lost to Bergman's THE VIRGIN SPRING. The movie was Bardot's biggest film to date, and the director was relentless in his effort to turn Bardot into an actress. Or at least that was Clouzot's view of it. Enormously sucessful in France, the film was the second biggest moneymaker, after BEN-HUR. Critical response was mostly positive, if a bit shocked, but the film was less successful than the Bardot films that went before. American audiences were more interested in getting a good look at BB, a once-aspiring ballerina, with or without her clothes. This poster was used in an Italian cinema. It is a large format poster, printed on two separate panels. The poster has both panels attached, and is folded. It shows its age and we would recommend linen-backing.
