The design has a strong mid-century graphic feel, with green and yellow colour, stylised portraits and Swedish title treatment giving the film a distinctive local identity. It is a very appealing example of Scandinavian film poster design for one of Britain's most beloved black comedies. A very rare and collectible poster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased in 1955, \u003cem\u003eThe Ladykillers\u003c\/em\u003e was directed by Alexander Mackendrick for Ealing Studios. The film follows a gang of criminals who pose as musicians while planning a robbery from the home of an unsuspecting elderly landlady, only to find their perfect plan increasingly undone by her innocence and determination. Its dark wit, brilliant ensemble cast and offbeat tone have made it a landmark of British comedy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis vintage film poster is sized 27 1\/4 x 39 11\/4 inches. It will be sent rolled (unframed).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYear: 1955\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoster Type: Swedish 1 Sheet Film Poster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArt By:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRolled\/Folded\/Other: Folded\/Rolled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Excellent\/Near Mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Details: Originally folded (as issued), but stored flat a long time and folds softened.
