EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Academy Poster for Laurence Olivier's Richard III, a masterpiece that graced the silver screen in 1955. The poster, adorned with vibrant hues of yellow, instantly catches the eye and transports us to a time when Shakespearean dramas reigned supreme. Laurence Olivier, a true virtuoso of his craft, takes center stage as both director and lead actor in this cinematic adaptation of one of William Shakespeare's most notorious plays. His portrayal of Richard III is nothing short of mesmerizing; he flawlessly embodies the treacherous king with an intensity that sends shivers down your spine. Accompanying Olivier are esteemed actors Claire Bloom, John Gielgud, and Ralph Richardson who bring their own brilliance to this production. Their performances add depth and nuance to an already spellbinding narrative. The Academy Poster serves as a visual testament to the grandeur and allure of this timeless classic. It captures the essence of Olivier's vision through its striking design and evocative imagery. As we gaze upon it, we can almost hear the echoes of applause from audiences who were captivated by this extraordinary film over half a century ago. Preserved by the British Film Institute (BFI), this print allows us to relish in the beauty and significance of Laurence Olivier's Richard III. It stands as a reminder that great art transcends time - forever etching itself into our collective memory.
