Here is an original Belgian movie poster from the first release of Jean Cocteau's classic film about dysfunctional family relationships,
Les Parents Terribles
. Adapted from Cocteau's successful 1938 stage play, the film tells the story of a complicated romantic love triangle within a French family where the young son's fiancee is also his father's mistress. This poster is from the first release of the
movie in Belgium in 1948. The beautiful
iconic artwork is unique to this Belgian release poster and has been referenced many times since. It is considered a prime example of Belgian movie poster art.
