ROPE (1948) 17085

Original Belgian Post War Poster Fine+ restored. Linen.

Original Belgian Poster (initially trimmed to 13x21) for the Alfred Hitchcock mystery thriller, ROPE (1948) starring James Stewart, Joan Chandler, John Dall, and Farley Granger. Brandon (Dall) and Phillip (Granger) strangle their "inferior" classmate, hide his body in their apartment, and invite his friends and family to a dinner party. As the evening wears on, Brandon becomes ever more bolder, while Phillip begins to regret what they have done. The plot is simple, the characters complex, and Hitchcock's treatment of the Leopold and Loeb parallel quite deft. This original Belgian poster was in fine plus condition, with lower left corner torn off in the border area only and trimmed at the top. The poster has been linen-backed, the top and the corner restored and this poster now presents beautifully. And who is the star of this poster? Hitchcock, of course.
