The Warriors — 1979 Japanese Release

Available · one owner only

Archive note

Japanese theatrical poster for Walter Hill's 1979 cult film The Warriors, featuring three protagonist gang members in iconic imagery: a fist clutching a golden orb, a denim jacket bearing the Warriors patch, and a close portrait of a youth in a headband. The tagline reads '1979年、彼らの夜が始まる。' (In 1979, their night begins.). This artifact documents the film's international distribution across markets where it developed underground mythologies distinct from its American reception. A document for collectors studying global genre cinema and the Warriors' specific place in post-punk visual culture.
