  • Is this a 2,3 or 5 set match?

    Scene at the bottom is from the daybill for The Man In The Iron Mask:

    Thanks Ves I may have never worked that one out and thank you for noticing the image from the 1977 film. Note the differences in the two images. I will comment and show another image a little later on in the day but for now other duties call.



  • Yeah, I noticed the two guys duelling/mansion in the back aren't on the daybill...artistic licence I assume.

    The original daybill artwork was copied from this design. The duellists and the large building as Ves rightly mentioned were left off the artwork. Also if you look carefully on the stock daybill on the right of the middle bottom scene and just left of the image of the actress there is what I am suggesting is a very small fraction  the iron mask image which has been covered by the actress. It is interesting the artist that worked on the original daybill left off a few things but when the stock poster daybill was organised later on the earlier images not used were added. Apparently not copied from the original daybill but from the original overseas paper this time.

  • Paper Tiger, but only because I cheated...
  • Doesn't matter how you solve it just as long as we do. The film was released in 1975,

    Sorry thought this one was already done and dusted...She-He man at the top of the above image... ;)

    The Medusa Touch with Lee Remick is correct Ves. You'll sleep peacefully now you solved that one. If anyone is interested the man behind Lee Remick is Lino Ventura.

    I couldn't remember her name...so didn't know who I was searching for...!  DAMN THIS SWISS CHEESE BRAIN!

    Knew I had seen the poster, had no idea the title...

    Thanks...and goodnight...

  • The fourth actor who's image appears from the Murder By Decree poster as pointed out by Ves is David Hemmings.
  • The image just above and just along side of Robert Redford is of course Sophia Loren. Anyone care to  guess which film this image is from?
  • edited July 2015

    Sophia Loren in Firepower ( 1979 ) answer to above question.

  • Let's put this one to bed. All the scenes taken from earlier films released in Australia by Filmways Australia have be indentified. This only leaves Robert Redford ( Barefoot In The Park photo ), Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe. All one can think is possibly a documentary or number of documentaries were released in Australia by Filways in the late 1960's that included the three images.
