To Catch a Thief (1955)
Original US poster

Unframed: 41 x 27 in. (104 x 69 cm)

Linen backed

This is one of Alfred Hitchcock's highly praised thrillers. This film makes spectacular use of its Riviera setting, car chases along perilous winding roads, and romantic pauses along the glittering Mediterranean coast, which creates an effect that is both glamorous and suspenseful. The film pairs two of Hitchcock's preferred actors, Grace Kelly and Cary Grant.

Excellent condition, colours remaining very bright, very minor restoration to folds.

Material of piece: Paper, backed on linen
