"Hot Enough for June" (地獄のガイドブック), Original First Release Japanese Movie Poster 1964, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) O309
This is an original Japanese B2 theatrical poster issued by Daiei for the first release of Hot Enough for June (released in Japan as Jigoku no Guidebook / 地獄のガイドブック), the 1964 British spy comedy directed by Ralph Thomas and starring Dirk Bogarde, Sylva Koscina, and Robert Morley. The film is a clever Cold War-era send-up of espionage thrillers, blending suave wit, political intrigue, and Mediterranean glamour.
Design
A striking mid-1960s design that captures the film’s playful espionage aesthetic. Sylva Koscina dominates the composition—glamorous in a bright yellow raincoat and set against minimalist white space—while inset scenes below hint at both seduction and danger. The playful typography and bold red title script evoke Japanese pop-poster sensibilities of the time, while the English tagline Hot Enough for June anchors the layout with international flair.
