Glory - المجد
$975.00 $1,250.00An actor finds his family life changing, when the woman he married begins to crave parties and nightlife more than she does caring for him and their son. He travels to Lebanon to write a film and falls in love with a young woman. He returns home to a family tragedy and spirals into despair – will his new love be enough to restore him to the happiness and glory he deserves? Real-life husband and wife icons Farid Shawqi and Huda Sultan star in this poignant film from director Elsayed Bedeir.
Famed artist Gassour designed this poster and it represents the apex of his masterful use of color and imagery. Huda Sultan in a glamorous red dress is eye-catching, along with the large representation of Shawqi behind her. The title calligraphy is designed in a rainbow gradient, to indicate the film was shot using the latest natural ColorScope technology. A background of dense brushstrokes adds to the painterly effect in this very rare poster.
