Full-Bleed British Quad (40" x 30"); Country-of-Origin ;
Fine+ Folded
Paramount, 1968

This full-bleed, country-of-origin British poster from director Lindsay Anderson's crime drama about a student-led rebellion, led by Mick Travis (Malcolm McDowell), that erupts at a long-established private school in England, is folded as issued. It shows only edge wear with small sporadic tears and creases, corner creases, and light separation at the end of one fold.

A British ambassador called the film "an insult to the nation," and Lord John Brabourne condemned its script as "the most evil and perverted" he'd read. Paramount initially resisted its release, but after "Barbarella" flopped, they released "Ifâ€¦," which became a critical and commercial success and earned Malcolm McDowell his role in "A Clockwork Orange" (1971).
