US and UK posters for Performance (1970), a pychedelic drama starring James Fox and Mick Jagger, written and directed by Donald Cammell (with co-direction by Nicoals Roeg).
(…)This gender-bending British film which signalled the end of the 1960s in something of the same way as the Altamont concert — the era of love and peace was morphing into a time of violence and madness, and this movie classically reflects that transition. “Performance” was not a great commercial success at the time of its release, and was treated more of an independent/arthouse affair than a large studio release (…). — vintagemovieposters.co.uk
Like the two main actors with their double roles, the movie title comes set in two different typefaces. Contrary to what one might expect, the original United Kingdom release posters use Futura, whereas the United States posters use the all-English Granby with its lozenge-shaped tittles and periods.
