About the Item
The 1985 original poster for Dangeureusement Vôtre, the French title of A View to a Kill, remains an iconic piece of cinematic memorabilia from the James Bond franchise. The film, directed by John Glen, is the fourteenth in the James Bond series produced by Eon Productions and marked Roger Moore's final appearance as the suave British spy.
The film blends espionage with high-stakes action, culminating in a thrilling climax atop the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. As with every Bond film, the promotional material was crucial in capturing the attention of the global audience. The original French-language poster for Dangeureusement Vôtre carries forward the rich tradition of visually arresting Bond artwork, designed to reflect the film's blend of glamour, danger, and adventure.
The narrative of the film revolves around James Bond's mission to stop the industrialist Max Zorin, played by Christopher Walken, from destroying Silicon Valley to monopolize the microchip market. The film is notable for its memorable characters, including Grace Jones as the formidable May Day, a character whose strength and presence added a unique dynamic to the Bond-villain relationship. Tanya Roberts played the role of Stacey Sutton, a geologist caught up in Zorin’s scheme, adding the classic Bond girl element to the mix.
The poster, while capturing the glamour and danger of the film, also encapsulates the era of the mid-1980s with its bold and dramatic visuals. Roger Moore, in his final outing as Bond, stands confidently with his signature Walther PPK, symbolizing the resilience and style of the character. Grace Jones’ May Day is also prominently featured, emphasizing her role as a powerful adversary in the story. The Golden Gate Bridge and Zorin’s blimp in the background hint at the film’s climactic sequence, promising viewers the dramatic action that the Bond series is known for.
The color palette and design elements are reflective of the larger-than-life aesthetics typical of the 1980s Bond films. The use of bright colors and dynamic compositions helps capture the excitement and allure of the James Bond universe, appealing to both long-time fans of the franchise and new audiences at the time of the film's release. The poster serves as a piece of nostalgia for those who experienced the era of Roger Moore as Bond, a period characterized by a mix of charm, wit, and daring stunts.
Dangeureusement Vôtre was released at a time when the Bond franchise was evolving, with a transition soon to come as Timothy Dalton would take over the role of 007 in the next installment. As a result, this particular poster also holds a special place in the history of James Bond as it represents the end of Roger Moore’s tenure, which spanned seven films and over a decade.
Collectors and fans of the Bond series regard the 1985 Dangeureusement Vôtre poster as a significant piece of James Bond history, symbolizing the final chapter of Roger Moore’s interpretation of the character. Its bold design and dynamic imagery encapsulate not just the essence of the film, but also the cultural moment it represents, bridging the classic Bond style with the more modern action-oriented approach that would characterize future films in the franchise.
This poster continues to be sought after by collectors for its nostalgic value and its embodiment of the Bond series during the mid-1980s, a period defined by opulent visuals, larger-than-life villains, and the enduring appeal of one of cinema’s most iconic characters.
