Anatomy of a Murder (1959)

Director Otto Preminger brought the Wendell Mayes’ novel Anatomy of a Murder to the big screen back in 1959.

In a murder trial, the defendant says he suffered temporary insanity after the victim raped his wife. What is the truth, and will he win his case?

The poster has been a favourite amongst many of years as Saul Bass, who designed the poster, showed the minimal could actually be more.

The fractured image of the body is what Bass is possibly best know for and set on the bright back ground it stands out a country mile.
