Tajms Skver – Times Square Movie Poster, Yugoslavia, 1981
21 November, 2017Sean0 Comments1 category
Budva is in what is now Montenegro, and in 1981 Zeta Film imported Times Square for the Yugoslavian film market. I don’t know when it opened or how well it did, or if it was subtitled in Serbian. All I know about it is that there was this poster, which replicates the UK poster. It’s a reproduction of the Cummins painting, losing a lot of detail and the artist’s signature, but at least it’s not a redrawing of it like the Belgian poster seems to have been. This was definitely a legitimate release. I have my doubts abut Belgium.

So, after the Belgian publicity, here's the Belgian movie poster, with text in both Dutch and French. The image is the Cummins painting from the British poster... although the signature is gone, there's an overall reddish tint to it, and there are lots of tiny differences that certainly make…
