Celluloid crusader Martin Scorsese’s preservation nonprofit Film Foundation has resurrected classics since 1990, including the recent restoration of Powell and Pressburger’s “Tales of Hoffmann.” MoMA’s ongoing Scorsese presentation centers around a rare, billboard-sized poster of that 1951 operatic fantasy, along with over 30 other marvelous spreads from the director’s collection.
Check out highlights below — courtesy of Quartz — including rare international posters for “On the Waterfront,” “I Walked with a Zombie,” “Sullivan’s Travels” and a four-panel for “The Searchers.” The MoMA exhibit accompanies a major screening series of Scorsese’s handpicked favorites, and Film Foundation restorations of “Hoffmann,” “On the Waterfront” and “The Red Shoes.”
