The Harder They Fall (1956)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Harder_They_Fall_(1956_film)
poster language: Italian
“The Clay Giant” I supposed you'd translate this. Bogart looks a little pudgy here for a change.

That gap at the top is for the cinema to write their own dates, session times, prices, etc?

The Glass Key (1942)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Glass_Key_(1942_film)

Great contrast between the red-yellow tones of the foreground and the blues and greens in the key. How would a glass key actually work anyway? It makes no sense. This is me admitting I haven't seen the movie or read the book. I'm more of a Chandler guy myself.

The Killing (1956)

Great clashing colours, and I like how all the panels are twisted and distorted.

Too Late for Tears (1949)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Too_Late_for_Tears

Another hit for the Saturday Evening Post. What's the modern equivalent of a story which electrifies twelve million readers? Maybe season one of “Serial”. I still think Adnan was guilty but don't tell anyone OK.

Touch of Evil (1958)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touch_of_Evil
poster language: Spanish
“Sed De Mal” doesn't mean “Touch of Evil” but “Thirst for Evil”.

This is great as an abstract expressionist artwork but pretty useless as a movie poster. “You're saying this movie has a man in it who wears a suit? You son of a bitch, I'm in”.
