Time Bandits Movie Poster "Large Edition" by Brett Ryder.
Time Bandits is Terry Gilliam's 1981 children's adventure film about time travel and good vs evil. Young Kevin finds himself travelling through holes in the space-time continuum in the company of half a dozen fractious dwarfs. Along the way, he encounters Agamemnon, Robin Hood, Napoleon and winds up as a passenger on the Titanic. At the time, this was a rare example of a small-budget British film successfully taking on American blockbusters. Now, it's a much-loved fantasy classic bursting with inspired images and ideas: Gilliam and co-writer Michael Palin (who also appears) are clearly enjoying themselves as much as their audience.
Artist Brett Ryder (based in Brighton, England) has created a beautiful poster (which is available in two limited editions, small and large). The design features all the key elements from the film (executed in Brett's extraordinary individual style): the adventure, the beauty, the surrealism and the out-and-out madness!
