I also picked up this quad for the re-release of My Neighbour Totoro. Love the film and I don't think it has ever had a quad before? I can't remember seeing one for the original release (I have one which is a double bill with Grave of the Fireflies)/



Really like this! I haven't started collecting quads yet as it will require even more investment in a different set of portfolios and poster frames -- but you have shared quite a few that really want to make me change my mind on this.

I recently purchased this beautiful French 22 x 31 first release poster for Laura (1944, but not released in France until 1946), among the greatest film noirs of all time, based on a fantastic book by Vera Caspary.  I don't really love the art on the various US posters for that film, and I find the moody graphics here much more interesting and atmospheric.  French paper for this title is remarkably elusive, so this is quite a nice addition to the budding film noir subsection of my collection.   



Really REALLY like this! Laura is definitely a great film and top 10-20 noir for sure (in my book at least).

Thanks Tob and Struzaholic!  I just dropped my Laura poster at the framer today, along with another French poster for Bride of Frankenstein (R1946), which I've been meaning to frame for a while but never got around to until now.  I think they will work well together once framed, their graphic styles and colors really compliment each other.

Wow! What a pair. Agree with you that style and colours complement each other very well. Looking forward to seeing how they look on the wall!
