Original 1980 Re-Release British 30 inch x 40 inch Quad Poster for the 1948 Max Ophuls Romance LETTER FROM AN UNKNOWN WOMAN, based on a story by Stefan Zweig and starring Joan Fontaine, Louis Jourdan, Mady Christians and Art Smith.
Letter From an Unknown Woman is the classic romantic film – a lush tearjerker par excellence – of the bittersweet theme of unrequited, lost love. Legendary European director Max Ophuls’ deeply-moving, timeless film, considered his greatest and most successful American film but a film unlike most Hollywood films. It demonstrates his lyrical, gliding camera movements, long tracking shots, atmospheric melancholy and romantic dialogue, the recreated flavor of turn-of-the century Vienna, and the exquisite acting talents of its delicate blonde heroine – portrayed by 31 year-old actress Joan Fontaine.
The poster is in fine unfolded (rolled) condition
