NAME OF THE ROSE, THE (1986) 19805

Original 20th Century-Fox One Sheet Poster (27x41). Rolled. Fine Plus Condition.

Original 20th Century-Fox One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Jean-Jacques Annaud 13th Century murder mystery, THE NAME OF THE ROSE (1986) starring Sean Connery, Christian Slater, and F. Murray Abraham. Art by Drew Struzan. Originally released in Germany under the title DER NAME DER ROSE, this excellent murder mystery revolves around an intellectually nonconformist monk (Connery) who is invited to investigate a series of mysterious deaths in an isolated abbey. Based on the best-selling novel by Umberto Eco, the greater concern of the book is the monopolization and suppression of knowledge, in this case by the Cathoic Church who fears that some knowledge is too dangerous for the common man. The film is very realistic with authentic period trappings, well-researched costumes, and tremendous performances by the whole cast. Eco's vision of the library as a "vast maze" is brilliantly recreated in the final segment of this stunning film. This original rolled one sheet poster is in fine plus condition. MovieArt Austin guarantees that this poster is an authentic U.S. one-sheet poster for this film. MovieArt does not sell reproductions.
