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. It is unusual to have the film's poster with you when you try to obtain signatures.


This road movie was directed by Wim Wenders. The cast includes Harry Dean Stanton, Dean Stockwell, Nastassja Kinski and Hunter Carson. The film is about Travis Henderson (Harry Dean Stanton) - a wanderer, who reunites with his brother (Dean Stockwell) and his son (Hunter Carson). Travis and his son embark on a journey to find Travis's estranged wife (Nastassja Kinski). This film won the Palme d'Or at the 1984 Cannes Film Festival.
