Original The Two of Us Movie Posters

The Two Of Us movie posters from Claude Berri's 1967 film — drawn from his wartime memories of sheltering with an antisemitic old man — are original theatrical paper from one of French cinema's warmest and most quietly affecting postwar productions. The film's central relationship, between the boy and the old man who is both antisemitic and unknowingly sheltering a Jewish child, is drawn with warmth and humour as well as moral complexity. Michel Simon's performance as the grandfather is among the most memorable in French cinema of the period. Shop original theatrical materials from this acclaimed production. Berri based the film on his own childhood wartime experience, giving it an autobiographical foundation that lends the comedy genuine emotional depth. The film was Berri's first feature and established him as a significant voice in French cinema; he later directed Jean de Florette (1986) and Manon des Sources (1986). Michel Simon, a veteran of French cinema since the 1920s, delivered one of his final major performances with characteristic physical and emotional generosity. Original French theatrical materials—affiches and lobby cards—from this production reflect the clean, photographic graphic style of late 1960s French cinema promotion.
