A guaranteed original one sheet movie poster from 2009 for Spike Jonze's superb fantasy adventure "Where The Wild Things Are", starring Max Records, Catherine Keener, Mark Ruffalo, Lauren Ambrose, Chris Cooper, James Gandolfini, Catherine O'Hara and Forest Whitaker.

Maurice Sendak's beautiful 1963 picture book has sold over 19 million copies and is much loved by the several generations who encountered it as a child. Transferring it to the big screen is a daunting task. In the 1980's, Disney considered a mix of traditional animation and early CGI, but abandoned the project. It would be another twenty years before Universal picked up the baton.

Spike Jonze's adaptation is a lovingly faithful retelling of Sendak's story. (The author even had approval over The Henson Company's creature designs.) It appeared in many 'Best Films of 2009' lists, but 'only' took $100M at the box office, just about matching its production budget. Despite achieving a 'PG' rating, apparently 70% of the marketing budget was aimed at adults, so we guess that the film failed to find its market. A real shame, it is a truly wonderful movie.

This fantastic movie poster has never been folded and is in superb condition. Being double-sided, it is suitable for display in an Art of the Movies Light Box or traditional framed display.
