Mr. Sohal met Christopher Waltz at the Django Unchained premiere in London. When he saw Mr. Sohal holding this poster he came running over to him and said 'this film made me. For his role in this film, Christopher Waltz won Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival, together with Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role at the Oscars. This limited edition poster features the same artwork as one of the American posters. However, it was printed with an edition number on the bottom left-hand corner, and given to studio employees.


It is rare for anyone to have an original poster signed, as the majority of signatures are on pieces of paper, photographs, and video/DVD sleeves.


This film was written and directed by Quentin Tarantino and stars Brad Pitt, Christoph Waltz, Michael Fassbender, Eli Roth, Diane Kruger, Daniel Brühl, Til Schweiger, and Mélanie Laurent. The film is set in Nazi-occupied France during World War II and tells the story of two plots to assassinate the Nazi leadership, one by a young Jewish French cinema owner, and the other by a group of Jewish American soldiers.
