Strangers on a Train (1951) Poster, British, Re-release 1950s

Unframed: 30 x 40 in. (76 x 102 cm)

This artwork was only used for the re-release of the film in the UK. There were two printings of the poster. One with a blank area at the top of the poster, and this more desirable style, featuring train tracks along the top.

This rare re-release poster does not surface very often.

This psychological thriller was directed by Alfred Hitchcock, and based on the 1950 novel by Patricia Highsmith of the same name. It was shot the same year that the book was released, with the film's release the following year. The film stars Farley Granger, Ruth Roman and Robert Walker, and also features the director's daughter Pat Hitchcock.
