UK Promo Photo #29

20 June, 2017 Sean 0 Comments 1 category

The promotional stills for Times Square in the UK generally had a few things in common. They were full-bleed, with no white border like their US counterparts. When they did have a border, it was even all the way around, where the American ones often had a large area at

“6”

This, I believe, is one of the photos missing from my copy of the UK Press Kit. The photo caption sheet in the press kit lists photos 6, 7, and 8 as pictures of Robin all with the same caption, and my copy only has a 7 and

First, some pictures. UK Press Kit photo #5 is another headshot of Tim Curry, this time as Johnny appears at the end of the film as he’s watching the concert though his telescope on the deck outside WJAD. The most interesting thing about this photo is, at first

Times Square Soundtrack Promotional Video

22 January, 2016 Sean 0 Comments 1 category

Apparently, in 1980, RSO sent this videotape to record retailers to play in-store to promote the soundtrack to Times Square. It features the two songs performed in the film, “Your Daughter Is One” and “Damn Dog.” The fact that the lyrics to “Your Daughter Is One” consist primarily of curse

Forward Into The Past

Back issues of Screen International are surprisingly hard to come by. That’s why I’m posting this so far out of the chronological order I’ve been trying to adhere to… I didn’t have this until last week (as of this writing). And I don’t even have the entire issue; I just

Soundtrack Promotional Poster OP-200

8 September, 2015 Sean 0 Comments 1 category

“O” is for “oversized,” I assume. This image is the same size as the image of the last poster, but trust me, the actual poster is double the size — just as tall and twice as wide. At four feet wide, it may be the largest poster in my collection;

Soundtrack Promotional Poster P-201

30 August, 2015 Sean 2 Comments 1 category

The top of this poster uses the elements of the album cover art. The text strips have been moved, and the title has been enlarged, tilted to the right rather than the left, and has had most of its color removed, all to take advantage of the larger space

The Mystery of the Double-Sided Poster, Side Two

28 June, 2015 Sean 0 Comments 1 category

Fully opening the two-sided poster reveals my favorite version of the image most associated with Times Square. As I mentioned last time, I find the red background more visually pleasing than the yellow used on the movie poster and soundtrack album cover. There are several other differences in this version,

Times Square Press Material folder (post 5 of 5)

The last photos from the press kit. To the left, Pammy and Nicky on the roof from which they toss their first television set, although here Nicky appears to be translating a radio broadcast for Pammy. Nothing like this occurs in the film; this photo, however, will be

On the left is the same photo as this one, cropped differently and of course without the autograph. On the right is the photo that may be the one used the most to promote the film. We’ll have a better idea about that once I’m done with all this
