An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded International One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, the 1974 Michael Cimino bank robbery action crime action crime thriller ("He Has Exactly Seven Minutes to Get Rich Quick!"; "Meet Thunderbolt and Lightfoot... they have exactly seven minutes to get rich quick!"; "Thunderbolt... The man with the reputation. Lightfoot... The kid who's about to make one!") starring Clint Eastwood (in the title role "as Thunderbolt"), Jeff Bridges (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; in the title role "as Lightfoot"), George Kennedy ("as Leary"), Gary Busey (in an early role), and Jack Dodson. Note that Michael Cimino was an unknown who Clint Eastwood hired to co-write the screenplay for "Magnum Force" (with John Milius), and Eastwood was so impressed by Cimino that he then hired him to direct and write the screenplay for this, his next movie, which proved very successful at the box office, and led to Cimino being hired to direct "The Deer Hunter"! Important Added Info: Note that this poster was stamped "FOREIGN" which means it was printed for use outside the United States (there would also have been posters stamped "DOMESTIC" for use within the United States). Often, the "FOREIGN" posters would have a different (sometimes racier) image than that for the one used in the United States. Storyline Seven years after a daring bank robbery involving an anti-tank gun used to blow open a vault, the robbery team temporarily puts aside their mutual suspicions to repeat the crime after they are unable to find the loot from the original heist, hidden behind a school chalkboard. The hardened artilleryman and his flippant, irresponsible young sidekick are the two wild cards in the deck of jokers.
