Movie Posters Summary

Movie Posters: The History of Cinema from the Origins to the Present by Richard Dacre

This book focuses on some of the finest movie posters ever produced - some because of the originality of their design, others because of their success at drawing attention and making a film seem unmissable. Through the posters of the 1930s and '40s we can relive the classic era of Hollywood; to the 1950s posters promoting the use of wide screen. As the Hollywood studio system declined, the rise of European cinema and other national movements in Asia and beyond would introduce new ideas to narrative films and their advertising, which would have a global impact.

A fine collection of posters featuring movies, which have helped shape the history of world cinema.
