The Boy Friend

The colour intensity on this 1971 film poster for "The Boy Friend" have to be seen to be believed. A brilliant design includes love hearts, flowers, stars, pearls and more being a perfect tribute to Busby Berkeley. The three portraits of Twiggy are stunning and include two full length images with great 1920's outfits. 1920's Art Deco glamour are to the fore with the central portrait of Twiggy with enormous eyes, beautifully drawn eyelashes, blonde curls and fashionable head band reflect Twiggy as an idealised 1920's show girl and make "The Boy Friend" part of the world of theatrical musicals of that period. The dancing couples, glamorous costumes and period yellow motor car are a brilliant design and the Art Deco influence and attention to detail is truly superb. A great designed piece to grace any wall. The detail and composition on this film poster is amazing. A great film poster printed by Robert Burton of Sydney in great folded condition with no pinholes as issued to the cinema with very bright colours. There is a little creasing as seen at the centre of the poster.
