It's a great movie, but Victor Mature is no Robert Mitchum and GUN CRAZY is, in many ways, a one-of-a-kind movie, thanks to Joe Lewis's direction... and has great art.
Channing's notes that the studio deliberately wanted monochrome full bleed art for the one sheet is interesting and one wonders what was behind this thinking. But I don't see great design elements in this poster. Oddly enough, the Australian paper, especialy the daybill is much more attractive, using similar art and in colour.

Up there with Out of the Past and Gun Crazy paper for me. Top Noir (literally) poster. On 5 Jun 2010, at 16:42, Posteritati wrote: MOPO, We're looking for one, thanks!
