FINALLY, SUNDAY

Original British 30 inch x 40 inch Quad Poster for the 1983 François Truffaut Drama FINALLY SUNDAY (VIVEMENT DIMANCHE), based on the thriller “The Long Saturday Night” by Charles Williams and starring Fanny Ardant, Jean-Louis Trintignant, Jean-Pierre Kalfon and Philippe Laudenbach.

In this light, sometimes tongue-in-cheek mystery, with snippets of Hitchcock, Kubrick, and even Victor Hugo, director François Truffaut showcases one of his favorite actresses, Fanny Ardant, as an enterprising secretary in love with her boss but up against clearing him of murder. Julien Vercel (Jean-Louis Trintignant) is a real estate dealer accused of killing his wife and her lover. He hides in his office while his secretary, Barbara (Ardant), sets out to discover what really happened and why. When Barbara starts looking into the dark past of her boss’ wife, she comes across illicit love affairs, a prostitution ring, and shady private detectives, until, finally, her suspicions turn toward Julien’s lawyer himself. Tragically, Vivement Dimanche was to be Truffaut’s last film; the great French director died of a cancerous brain tumor in 1984.

The poster art is by Paul Derrick.
