A guaranteed original one sheet movie poster from 1978 for Walter Hill's car crime thriller "The Driver", starring Ryan O'Neal, Bruce Dern and Isabelle Adjani.

The police call him "Cowboy", a quiet and enigmatic L.A. getaway driver who commands a high-price, but is worth every penny. When a job goes wrong and he is seen by a witness, is it the lead that the cops have been after? 

Directors such as Tarantino, Winding Refn and Edgar Wright have cited the movie as an influence on their own work. While Refn's "Driver" and Wright's "Baby Driver" are fairly evident homages. Film buffs may also spot references to the film in "Pulp Fiction" and "Kill Bill: Volume 2"

This is such a wonderful original movie poster. All we know of the artist is their name 'M. Daily', but their work is stunning. An amazing piece of art that is somewhat reminiscent of Bob Peak, but has a style that is all of its own. We absolutely adore it.

This example was issued folded (as was common practice in the 1970s) but has recently been linen-backed by our paper conservator. They have done a superb job and it is likely to be the best example out there. Please do take a look at our hi-res and close-up photos.

We only sell guaranteed original movie posters. We do not sell reproductions.

Note: This poster is priced unframed. Photos showing framed and 'in room' images are for illustration only. Please check our hi-res images and the sizing information shown above.
