This past Monday, Criterion added two new posters to their store: M. Hulot’s Holiday and Dillinger is Dead. Last month we saw the addition of Lola Montes and Amarcord as available options for your wall art collection.
Each poster is 27″ x 40″, retails for $25, and will certainly be the envy of your cinephile friends. Click the images below to head over to the Criterion store to add them to your shopping cart.
On a sidenote, Criterion recently tweeted out an amazing photo, giving us a glimpse into the inner sanctum of it’s Wonka-like laboratories.
Don’t you just wish that Criterion would make all of these cover posters available to purchase as well? Which would you purchase?
Are you planning on purchasing either of these? What do you think of the artwork in general?

I'm glad that these posters run against the “clever” decorating trend of the past two decades of having either posters of American movies in another language or of foreign films in non-English languages, original or otherwise. I would gladly hang an American/British version of a foreign language film poster, just to be emptily contrarian. Or because it looks good.
What movie posters, if any, do you guys have on your walls? I currently have Spirited Away and Trainspotting, though I got my girlfriend a framed Munyurangabo for Christmas, which will hang in our new apartment in downtown DC.
Of the available posters, I probably like Pierrot le Fou the best, but if I could make my own, I like these three: Seven Samurai (re-issue), Sawdust and Tinsel and The Lovers. Maybe I just like black & white images?
That $9 Janus coffee mug could serve as a decent throw-in to push an order over $50 and get the free delivery.
Why is there a $100.00 “Divorce Italian Style” print? I don't know anybody who has seen the movie, nor ever heard it talked about. Its the artwork superior and/or is there a cult-within-the-criterion-cult for this movie?
I've seen (and own) Divorce Italian Style – it's a pretty funny movie! (But then, you don't know me…) Still, I get your point, I'm not sure that I'd ever want to put its comic-homicidal images on my wall, esp. with a $100 price tag. Maybe the artist himself has some kind of fan base?
