More information
This film was directed by Luis Buñuel, and stars Catherine Deneuve in one of her most famous roles. Deneuve plays a young woman who spends her midweek afternoons as a high-class prostitute while her husband is at work. Catherine Devenue signed this poster whilst at a screening and Q&A in London to promote her film Potiche. It is rare for anyone to have an original film poster signed, as the majority of signatures are on pieces of paper, photographs and video/dvd sleeves. It is unusual to have the film's poster with you when you try to obtain signatures.
