New Movie Posters For Old Movies – Part 2

You might be so keen to remember about a month ago when we brought you a slew of new posters for old movies, courtesy of Turner Classic Movies (TCM) in anticipation for their “Summer Under the Stars” series taking place throughout the month of August. There were 12 of them we brought your way, which I though were pretty cool.

I happened to see an ad today advertising “Summer Under the Stars” again, but this time it showed poster images I hadn’t seen the first time out. It just so happens the first 12 posters were just teasers and TCM ended up creating 31 new posters (one per movie, per day this month) to advertise these classic films.

All posters are attached below for your enjoyment, plus an additional teaser poster not included in the original 12. Titles in alphabetical order are: An Affair to Remember, Beat the Devil, The Big Heat, The Conversation, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Dr. Strangelove, Excuse My Dust, Gilda, The Grapes of Wrath, Green Berets, Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, The Haunting, High Society (plus teaser poster number two), Jailhouse Rock, The Letter, The Magnificent Seven, Mogambo, The Mouse That Roared, North By Northwest, Only Angels Have Wings, The Pirate, The President’s Analyst, Roman Holiday, Safety Last, The Servant,  Show People, They Drive By Night, To Catch A Thief, Trouble in Paradise and Wuthering Heights.

North By Northwest is my favorite film from that list, but I think The Mouse That Roared has my favorite poster. Which one would you adorn your walls with?

Some of these are absolutely fantastic (The Conversation, The Letter), but some are downright awful. "An Affair to Remember" looks amateurish and cheap and "North By Northwest" is just plain ugly.

I like "The Magnificent Seven" one myself, simple yet effective. "Guess Who" is also great, very classic. North by Northwest is cool too. A very modern action movie poster feel NXNW.

I would love to see the originals side by side with the reimaginings here. I think these are much better than the first ones we saw. I like many of these (Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde) but for some reason the subtlety of Guess Whos Coming to Dinner is perhaps the best. Brilliant.
