Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid (1982) - (Steve Martin) US one-sheet
This is a US 27" x 40' one-sheet poster for the 1982 Carl Reiner film Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid based on a story by Carl Reiner, George Gipe and Steve Martin and starring Steve Martin as private investigator Rigby Reardon. Plot summary: The dialogue and events of the film are assembled in a collage to make a new story from 18 vintage noir films, to which it both pays tribute and spoof. With the help of Phillip Marlowe [Humphrey Bogart] Reardon investigates the cause of the mysterious auto crash that has killed John Hay Forrest [George Gaynes]; he is hired to do this by Forrest's daughter Juliet [Rachel Ward], with whom he also falls in love. Rigby's affection for Rachel threatens to derail his professional objectivity as a criminal plot slowly emerges to destroy the world with deadly cheese mold.
