“Notting Hill” (ノッティングヒルの恋人), Original Japanese First-Release Movie Poster 1999, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) ZA204

This is an original Japanese B2 theatrical poster printed in 1999 for the first Japanese release of Notting Hill (ノッティングヒルの恋人), Roger Michell’s beloved romantic comedy starring Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant. Written by Richard Curtis, the film became one of the defining late-’90s rom-coms—warm, witty, and built around the fantasy of an ordinary life colliding with global celebrity.

Design
A clean, modern Japan-market design centred on the film’s most iconic imagery: an enormous soft-focus portrait of Julia Roberts as a billboard-like presence—movie-star perfection—while Hugh Grant walks past at street level, small against the scale of fame. The Japanese title 「ノッティングヒルの恋人」 is elegantly placed across the lower field, with vertical copy at right and bold headline text at top emphasising its box-office impact. Minimal, graphic, and instantly recognisable—pure late-’90s cinema marketing.
