Posters of wartime glamour and luxury, these bright and colourful posters were advertising films. The most famous is "Casablanca" (1942).

It is tribute to the film-makers of the day that so many of their creations have survived to be among the greats of world cinama.

Condition: Muy bueno. : Este libro es una colección de carteles de películas de los años 40, una década que produjo algunas de las películas más aclamadas por la crítica de todos los tiempos. Desde la icónica Casablanca, protagonizada por un cínico y cansado del mundo Humphrey Bogart y una Ingrid Bergman nunca tan hermosa, hasta el seminal Ciudadano Kane de Orson Welles, y desde la optimista ¡Qué bello es vivir! hasta el enigmático El tercer hombre, votada recientemente como la mejor película británica de todos los tiempos. Esta fue la década en la que Hollywood presentó al público cinematográfico uno de los mejores géneros de todos los tiempos: el cine negro, aún personificado por películas como Double Indemnity, Out of the Past, Gilda y The Maltese Falcon, un mundo oscuramente siniestro de gumshoes, damas de doble cruce, policías corruptos y callejones sin salida.

Film Posters of the 40s: The Essential Movies of the Decade
Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Orig.-Broschur; Condition: Sehr gut. 127 S. durchgehend farbige Abbildungen; 30 cm, Tadelloser Zustand, frisches Exemplar. // Die besten Filme der 40er Jahre und ihre Stars - in Farbe! Von zeitlosen Klassikern wie Casablanca, aufrüttelnden Meisterwerken wie Citizen Kane, einem vor Optimismus strotzenden It`s a Wonderful Life bis zum exotischen Märchentraum Thief of Baghdad - Filme der 40er Jahre zählen heute zu den Besten überhaupt. Einerseits befindet sich Hollywood noch in der Nostalgie eines goldenen Zeitalters, aber es bricht auch die Zeit des Film Noir an: Gangster, halbseidene Damen und dunkle Straßen. In dieser Epoche ohne Trailer und Teaser im Fernsehen lockten die Kinos ihr Publikum mit grandiosen Plakaten an. Wahre Künstler holten jede Nuance aus dem verführerischen Blick einer Veronica Lake, ließen die Augen von Bette Davis glühen und Humphrey Bogart zum Inbegriff der Coolness werden. Unvergessene Stars der 40er Jahre wie Lauren Bacall, Robert Mitchum, Barbara Stanwyck, Rita Hayworth, Cary Grant, Henry Fonda, Marlene Dietrich und viele mehr werden hier verschwenderisch schön und full-colour in Szene gesetzt und wieder zum Leben erweckt. /lager 0185 ISBN: 9783822845165 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 1100.
