When Italian designer Federico Mancosu<\/em> circled some Django Unchained<\/strong><\/a> fan art on the internet earlier this year, little did he know whose eyes were positively peeled looking at them. Long story short, the poster artwork for Django Unchained, Quentin Tarantino<\/em>‘s latest epic masterpiece (hitting theaters in the U.S. this December the 25th, in a widescreen Santa bag), is based on Federico’s work, making thim famous all over italy. But Federico, cinema-savvy as he is, had something else up his sleeve.<\/p>\n

In the 60s, the high time for the spaghetti western<\/a>, an over-used movie poster format, 13\u00d728 in<\/em>ches, know as the ‘locandina<\/a>‘ was prevalent. So Federico made a funny Django Unchained poster, in the Italian “Locandina” 60s style. It bears the signature characteristics of spaghetti western locandinas of that time (click here to compare it to a locandina for Corbucci’s 1966 Django)<\/a>, and bears the title “Django Scatenato” as the movie would have been called had it been of Italian making in the 60s, one of many Django movies.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Thanks to Federico for sending me an actual print of this, which now graces my living room wall, and I know he also sent one to somebody else :)<\/p>\n

DJANGO UNCHAINED \u2013 ITALIAN \u201cLOCANDINA\u201d 60\u2032s STYLE
\nby Federico Mancosu<\/p>\n

I made this poster last June, but I make it public only today, first I wanted to send a copy to\u00a0Quentin Tarantino<\/strong>, and this has happened only few days ago. The artwork was created with the intention to developing a poster with the style of the typical Italian sixties posters, and exactly those printed with the size of 33\u00d771 cm (13\u00d728 in<\/em>), in Italy we call this kind of poster \u201clocandina\u201d; their promotional use was to be displayed in the halls of Italian cinemas. The structure, the lettering and the type of colors, recall the original poster of Sergio Corbucci<\/strong>\u2018s \u201cDjango\u201d<\/strong>, released in 1966. To make the artwork as close as possible at the time, I put the \u201cColumbia Pictures\u201d <\/strong>old logo\u00a0and all the various warnings and notes from the company that supposedly printed and distributed the poster.\u00a0Of course, for coherence, the subject of the poster was represented with a painting style (see below the details picture).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
