Muhammad Ali A.k.a. Cassius Clay (1970)
Muhammad Ali, the Greatest captures a defining moment in American cultural and political history, chronicling the legal battle and public fallout surrounding Muhammad Ali’s refusal of the Vietnam War draft. Released during a period of intense social upheaval, the film reflects Ali’s transformation from sports hero to global symbol of conscience, civil rights, and resistance to state power.
A striking original poster dominated by bold red framing and a powerful central image of Ali standing victorious in the boxing ring beside the Statue of Liberty. The stark black and white photography and confrontational headline, Cassius Clay vs. U.S.A., turn the poster into a visual manifesto, merging sport, politics, and national identity in one of the most provocative and memorable designs of late 1960s documentary cinema.
