T, I really like Bardot's wild hair on the il Disprezzo poster! Hey, I just noticed the Fritz Lang credit on this poster: very interesting.  Okie

Le Mépris (French title) is, imo, Godard's best film, and that says a lot since he's made a lot of great movies.  It's also one of the most talked about French flicks ever.  A true classic of world cinema.  Fritz Lang is in it.

If you haven't seen it, you should.  And Bardot is at her most beautiful in this movie.  That scarf she wears, every woman wore a scarf like that after the movie.

Okie, not only Fritz Lang is in it, but he actually plays himself.  "Le Mepris" is an adaptation of a novel by the same title by Alberto Moravia, and differs quite significantly from the source material.  Both film and book are great in their own way.

Lots of mostly lesser Bardots going for sale lately.  Got a few, lost a bunch, most of them are going for too much, imo.  The completist in me keeps trying, but most are in terrible condition.  It's so hard to spend money on a "good" condition poster.  I wonder why so many suddenly.  And none of the good ones, French or Italians.  Probably good for the bank account.

A few more acquired in the past month or so...  Nothing too crazy, mostly completist stuff (although I had to fight for some of them), but I'm still happy to add them to the collection.

Because no one cares, buddy.  I'm kinda maintaining this thread for my own personal gratification.

Yeah, thought of getting it, but just too damaged for me, even at that price.

Oh. That one isn’t nearly as rare... you’ll find another in better condition eventually.

Another extremely rare Bardot poster for En Cas de Malheur (Love Is My Profession) by Angelo Cesselon.  Never thought I'd own that one. 

Check!

That's a beaut', T. The illusion of depth in the key art is really something, and of course there's Ms. Bardot  thumbsup.gif

Congrats.

Adding a few Bardots to my little collection courtesy of HA Signature.  I'm so glad that they were grouped, because I really didn't have time to follow the sale this weekend.
