“Gone With the Wind” (風と共に去りぬ), Original Japanese Re-Release Movie Poster 1971, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) O778

This is an original Japanese B2 poster printed in 1971 for a Japanese re-release of Gone With the Wind (風と共に去りぬ), a United States epic romantic drama directed by Victor Fleming, starring Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh, with Leslie Howard and Olivia de Havilland.

Film background
First released in 1939, Gone With the Wind remains one of Hollywood’s most famous large-scale epics—an operatic Civil War-era romance anchored by Vivien Leigh’s iconic performance as Scarlett O’Hara. Renowned for its sweeping production scale, Technicolor imagery, and enduring cultural footprint, the film was repeatedly revived theatrically worldwide, including this 1971 Japanese re-release aimed at audiences experiencing the classic on the big screen in a new era.

Poster design
A striking Japanese B2 that prioritises glamour and psychological intensity: a huge close-up of Scarlett dominates the sheet—cool gaze, jewel earrings, and immaculate studio lighting—set against a blazing orange-red sky that evokes fire, passion, and catastrophe. A silhouetted tree and horizon line cut across the lower field, adding a sense of Southern landscape and destiny, while the bold crimson title 「風と共に去りぬ」 anchors the base in powerful, classic typography. The overall design reads like prestige cinema marketing: minimal elements, maximum star presence.
