Original TriStar Pictures One Sheet Poster (27x41). Unfolded. Very Fine.
Original TriStar Pictures One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Jonathan Demme AIDS drama, PHILADELPHIA (1993) starring Tom Hanks, Denzel Washington, and Roberta Maxwell. Hanks plays a successful lawyer who is fired from his position with a conservative law firm because he has AIDS. He hires a homophobic small time lawyer (Washington) as the only willing advocate for a wrongful dismissal suit. Hanks breaks free of Hollywood's stereotypical portrayals of gay men and presents his character as a normal guy. His touching and nuanced performance won him the Academy Award for Best Actor, and Bruce Springsteen also won the Academy Award for Best Original Song. This original one sheet poster is unfolded and in very fine condition.
