Description:

This original vintage Finnish movie poster promotes the 1956 Hollywood classic "Giant" (Jättiläinen in Finnish), directed by George Stevens. The film stars Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson, and James Dean, with notable supporting roles by Carroll Baker, Jane Withers, Chill Wills, Mercedes McCambridge, and Sal Mineo. Based on Edna Ferber’s novel, "Giant" is an epic drama exploring themes of wealth, power, and racial tensions in Texas.

The poster features a bold and colorful composition, divided into striking sections. The top half showcases an oil field at sunset, with towering derricks set against an orange and yellow sky, symbolizing Texas' oil boom. In the foreground, a sepia-toned James Dean, wearing a cowboy hat and smoking a cigarette, dominates the design. Below, Elizabeth Taylor and Rock Hudson appear in a dramatic pose, their faces set against a green background, adding to the sense of romance and conflict in the film. The bottom section includes a scene of cowboys herding cattle, reinforcing the film’s Western and ranching themes.

The typography is bold and attention-grabbing, with the Finnish title "JÄTTILÄINEN" prominently displayed in white against a green backdrop, with "JÄTTEN" appearing in red at the bottom. The Warner Bros. logo is present in the top right corner, alongside a note that the film was shot in WarnerColor.

This poster exhibits visible signs of wear, including fold marks, small holes, and glue residue. Despite these imperfections, the vibrant colors and striking imagery remain good. It would still make a fantastic display piece, especially when framed.
