Indeed, and it's even more lucky that we're not judged for our tastes.

I like the Italiano BV, and I know a few others who do too.

Subject: Re: [MOPO] Question about Italian Poster for Blue Velvet by David Lynch

Channing

I believe it is just pure sleazy exploitation of the highest (or indeed lowest) order. Rossellini's character is quite brutalised in the film,
but not in the way the poster suggests.

I have always wondered who would ever want that poster - certainly not
something I would want on my wall!  I think the British Quad is the
nicest piece on the film, FWIW.

I am currently selling an Italian poster for David Lynch's BLUE
VELVET. The poster is a really disturbing, sick image of a woman tied
to a pool table.  It appears she has been assaulted  and the artwork
is pretty graphic.  I was wondering if anyone on MOPO knows the story
behind this artwork.  Was there a scene or scenes in the Italian
release of this film that included such a situation?  Was it simply a
sleazy ad campaign designed to make the film look like a slasher film
and no such scene existed? I haven't seen the movie in years but I do
remember there was something about Isabella Rossellini's character
being attacked but I believe it occurred off-screen.  Any help with
this would be appreciated.  The item number on EBAY is #140189460297.

Thanks, Channing Thomson
