Stairway to Heaven / A Matter of Life and Death

The English title for this film is "A Matter of Life and Death". This Powell and Pressburger film poster is a wondrous and romantic image telling the story of true love. David Niven stars as a British Squadron leader who converses with an American service woman, Kim Hunter as his plane is losing altitude. Following his miraculous survival they meet and fall in love. This beautiful rolled condition film poster brings together all the finest elements of previous posters for the film with the planets, the couple and not least the "Stairway to Heaven". There are available lesser detailed versions of the 1995 re-release cinema poster but this one trumps the lot.
