That was quick...
Excellent service from www.kinoart.net, especially considering that I ordered this poster from them on Thursday. The poster is not in perfect condition but it is still a bargain.

While browsing the excellent poster site KinoArt I happened to notice that they were selling the US One-Sheet of Rolling Thunder. This usually sells for anywhere between $60 and $100 dollars on eBay so I was pleased to buy for just £16. If only an independent label would be willing to license this film from MGM/Sony for a DVD or Blu-Ray release. It is by far one of the best revenge films ever made. Looks like my fan DVD, built using a rip of an American HDTV broadcast, will have to suffice for now.

Peur Sur La Ville is one of my all time favourite films. Think Dirty Harry (Don Siegel, 1970) meets giallo and you get some idea of what this film is about. I am not one for hyperbole but the stunts that Jean Paul Belmondo performs in this film are jaw droppingly awesome. He hangs off of the edge of high-rise buildings, walks along the top of a speeding train and dangles from a helicopter. How this film has never received more exposure is completely beyond me. I have been looking a poster for this film for some time but have been put of by the disappointing artwork on some of them. I recently lost an auction for the original French poster but was very happy to find a US one-sheet poster in excellent condition on eBay this afternoon for a decent price.
Another new arrival. I used to have a reprint of the original 1971 US one-sheet on my office wall but I had succumbed to age and wear. This poster was for the BFI screening several years ago. Apparently, some of these BFI reprints are quite hard to come by which is not surprising considering the quality of the posters. Not bad for £10.

This has been my most sought after film poster and I have just purchased it from an Italian eBay seller. It cost more than I wanted to spend but this poster does not turn up on eBay too often. I will be getting it framed as soon as it arrives.
