Art of Movies Light Boxes are designed for original double-sided movie posters, giving stronger colour saturation and image depth when illuminated from behind. They recreate the back-lit cinema display effect used in cinemas and movie theaters, making them ideal for home cinemas, media rooms and display-led interiors where a more dramatic alternative to traditional framing is wanted.
Also available for 30 × 40 inch UK quad movie posters.

A light box turns a poster into a more immersive display piece. It is especially effective with double-sided cinema posters, which were originally designed to be illuminated from behind.
Double-sided cinema posters were made for back-lit display, making a light box one of the most striking ways to present them at home.
Illumination from behind gives artwork more presence, helping colour, contrast and image depth feel more vivid than a conventional framed display.
An ultra-slim profile keeps the display clean and contemporary, while still creating the bold home-cinema feel that makes light boxes so distinctive.

Switch the Light Box on and off to compare a poster in a darkened room with the same artwork illuminated from behind. The preview is illustrative, but it shows the colour, contrast and presence that make cinema-style Light Boxes so striking.
Light box display
Art of the Movies Light boxes are designed to make the most of double-sided posters, combining even back-lighting with an ultra-slim profile and straightforward day-to-day use.
Low-energy LEDs work with a nano-technology light panel to spread brightness evenly across the poster, helping colour, contrast and image depth feel more vivid.
The standard cover gives the clearest, sharpest view of the artwork and is the strongest choice when reflection is not a major concern.
Anti-glare acrylic helps cut reflections and can work better in brighter rooms or spaces where the light box will face windows or lamps.
Snap-frame sides make it simple to open the light box, swap the poster, and close it again without a complicated fitting process.
Each light box is supplied with a remote control, making it easy to turn the display on and off without reaching for the mains switch.
An ultra-slim profile keeps the look clean and contemporary while still delivering the bold visual impact that makes a light box stand out.
Low-energy LED illumination.
No UV and no heat from the LEDs.

Customer reviews
See how customers are using Art of the Movies Light Boxes to bring their original movie posters to life at home.
I own three of these frames now to display my double sided posters. Can’t get enough of them. Excellent build quality, 10/10 customer service and would highly recommend to anyone. Adam at Art of the Movies responded to an issue I had with one of the frames in less than 2 minutes at the weekend and resolved my concern straight away. So their warranty and aftercare is something they take seriously! It doesn’t get any better than these frames or this company!
Packaged beautifully, easy to swap out posters and easy to hang. This looks incredible on the wall and I’ve had amazing comments from family and friends and folk on social media too.
The service from Art of the Movies was top notch. Received the light box 2 days after ordering and was kept updated every step of the way. The lightbox itself is simply superb with a very slim design and lovely build quality. Looks amazing in my very small study / editing suite. Needed something on the wall to light the room up and look good at the same time and this definitely works. The Wi-fi connector also links easily with Alexa via an app. Thanks again Adam and everyone at Art of the Movies
