Description

Kiss Me Deadly (United Artists, 1955). Half Sheet (22" X 28") Style B. Ralph Meeker is possibly the screen's toughest Mike Hammer in this frank and sensual adaptation of Mickey Spillane's two-fisted classic. Hammer picks up a terrified woman (Cloris Leachman, in her first film role), running barefoot along the highway, and is immediately drawn into a web of intrigue and deceit. The glowing briefcase would later reappear in Tarantino's Pulp Fiction. This splendid half sheet poster has great color and a very sharp appearance; light restoration includes airbrushed borders and cleaning. It had light edge wear, and there is a very minor post-restoration chip in the border, but is otherwise in sensational condition. A great poster for one of the great film noir classics. Very Fine+ on Paper.
