Translating Hollywood: The World of Movie Posters

by Sam Sarowitz, Christopher D. Salyers (Design), Eliane Lazzaris (Design) 

From the collection of New York City's Posteritati, and proprietor Sam Sarowitz's personal collection, Translating Hollywood delivers a fresh perspective on movie posters. How does the US poster for Blue Velvet differ from the Italian poster? How did Japanese distributors try to portray Raiders of the Lost Ark as compared to the Polish? The differences are about much more than language.
