Framed poster for the film *Remorques* (1941) by Jean Gremillon, starring Jean Gabin and Michèle Morgan. Illustrated by Duccio Marvasi and printed by Saint Martin. (signs of wear, creases, tears) Note: Adapted from the novel by Roger Vercel, with dialogue by Jacques Prévert, *Remorques* (1941) is one of the great films of pre-war and Occupation-era French cinema. Filming, which began in Brest in July 1939, was interrupted twice by World War II and the mobilization of Jean Grémillon and Jean Gabin. The final scenes were completed in 1941, by which time Gabin and Michèle Morgan had already left France for the United States. The storm sequences, originally planned to be shot at sea, ultimately had to be filmed in a studio using scale models. Released on November 27, 1941, the film reunited the famous couple from *Quai des brumes* on screen for the third time. This poster, illustrated by Duccio Marvasi, attests to the enduring legacy of this classic of French cinema.
