Movie posters reflect contemporary styles in graphic design as well as contemporary thinking about movie marketing. The James Bond franchise, spanning forty years and five actors in the lead role, offers a singular exploration of cultural evolution around a single character. So too does this new collection of posters, which includes utterly fascinating international renditions. Who could forget the French classic, "Hearty Kisses from Russia"?
