“Atlantic City, U.S.A.” (アトランティック・シティ), Original Japanese B2 Poster 1980, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) O604

This is an original Japanese B2 poster issued in Japan for Louis Malle’s Atlantic City, U.S.A.—the elegant, melancholy modern classic starring Burt Lancaster and Susan Sarandon (with Michel Piccoli), and famously crowned with the Golden Lion (Grand Prize) at the Venice Film Festival. The film’s mood is pure late‑era glamour and decay: a city of neon promises and missed chances, where an old‑guard survivor drifts into a final shot at relevance as the modern world crowds in.

Poster design
A highly distinctive Japanese illustrated style that feels like a noir fairytale: the skyline is rendered as a dense, hand‑drawn casino dreamscape—marquees, signage, and glittering nightlife—while the central figure pairing anchors the composition with a wistful, character‑driven focus. The typography layers Japanese and English titles with festival‑prestige messaging, giving the whole sheet that classic “art‑house event film” presence.
