This movie poster features the iconic Brandon Lee in his thrilling action film, RAPID FIRE which was heavily marketed off of Bruce Lee's reputation, stating in the trailer, "Brandon Lee is every bit as exciting as his Father Bruce Lee. Like Father, Like Son!" The 11"X17" poster showcases Lee's impressive martial arts skills and intense on-screen presence. The design captures the excitement and danger of the film, making it a must-have for any fan of Lee or action movies in general. After this wrapped up, Brandon busied himself with the last production he would ever make, "The Crow" in which he famously was shot from a prop gun which was supposed to have a blank and instead had live ammo in it.
Although Brandon Lee had filmed most of "The Crow" by the time of his passing, there were still retakes to shoot certain parts and the movie was dropped by Paramount but picked up by Miramax who used an early form of CGI and editing from earlier takes to put Brandon's Face on his stunt double's body but the finished product was undeniably good generating an unexpected cult following. This was the first of a host of four "sequels" starring different people of course, with a similar circumstances in very dark scenes and circumstances and even darker humor. Most fans would then go back to find this little cinematic gem when Brandon could be seen in action without face paint in a macabre mask, and enjoy the martial arts skills that Brandon seemed so naturally to possess genetically from his famous father. This movie became another one that Brandon's fans would come to enjoy as well.
We believe the poster to be an original piece of movie memorabilia from the 1990s due to when it was purchased (decades ago) but since we do not seem to have the original paperwork any longer after massive move (you may see it as no better than a reproduction, since it cannot be proven with paperwork of its purchase years ago). It is meant to be something shared from one collector to another for the purposes of collecting only. The condition is in very good to excellent condition considering its age as it was not displayed, only a viewed a few times- unrolling and rolling it again and now we have little room for it so we are looking to "rehome it" to another collector's memorabilia collection for their enjoyment. It is perfect for collectors or anyone looking to add a historical piece of Brandon Lee's work (or his father, Bruce Lee's by association) to their entertainment memorabilia collection. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own a piece of cinematic history showing the martial arts skills of the son of a prolific martial artist!
