El Cid (1961) – Original Yugoslavian Movie Poster – Charlton Heston, Sophia Loren
Original vintage Yugoslavian theatrical poster for “El Cid” (1961), the monumental historical epic directed by Anthony Mann and produced by Samuel Bronston.
The film stars Charlton Heston in the title role as Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, alongside Sophia Loren, with supporting performances by Raf Vallone and Herbert Lom.
This Yugoslav edition features a striking and classic design, combining a bold red vertical composition with a heroic central portrait of El Cid, medieval tournament scenes, and fortress imagery. The visual balance between character focus and narrative setting makes it an excellent example of period international poster art.
