Big Blue, The (1988)
An original US One Sheet poster for Luc Besson’s cult classic The Big Blue, a film that became a phenomenon in Europe and a defining work of 1980s art-house cinema. Measuring 27 x 41 inches, this striking poster captures the film’s dreamlike atmosphere with its deep, luminous ocean imagery and silhouetted diver reaching for a dolphin, perfectly evoking the movie’s hypnotic blend of beauty, danger, and spiritual longing.
Culturally, The Big Blue has a unique legacy: while its US release was modest, in France it became one of the country’s most successful films of the decade, adored for Éric Serra’s ethereal score and Besson’s poetic storytelling. Over time, it has achieved cult status worldwide, inspiring divers, filmmakers, and audiences drawn to its themes of obsession, freedom, and the mysterious pull of the sea. Original posters like this remain highly collectable, not only for fans of Besson but also for those seeking standout pieces of 1980s cinema history.
Director Luc Besson is famous for his imaginative visual technique and breathtaking action sequences. One of the most stunningly beautiful films ever made, "The Big Blue" features gorgeous underwater photography and spectacular location shooting in the French Antibes, the Greek islands, Peru, and Taormina in Sicily. But it is the emotional intensity of the film experience and mystical themes of the story that have made it a cult phenomenon.
