IF…. (1968) POSTER, BRITISH

SIGNED BY MALCOLM MCDOWELL


30 x 40 in. (76 x 102 cm)


This British landmark counterculture drama was produced and directed by Lindsay Anderson. The film stars Malcolm McDowell, David Wood and Richard Warwick. After a series of humiliating, and sometimes abusive incidents, a group of pupils, led by a lower sixth form student, rebel against the system. The film won the Palme d'Or at the 1969 Cannes Film Festival. The Design Museum in London had a Stanley Kubrick exhibition. Malcolm McDowell came to the exhibition and there was also a special screening and Q&A session of A Clockwork Orange where he signed the poster. It is rare for anyone to have an original film poster signed, as the majority of signatures are on pieces of paper, photographs and video/dvd sleeves. It is unusual to have the film's poster with you when you try to obtain signatures.
