Les Miserables البؤساء Farid Shawqi 1973 Egyptian one-sheet

Les Miserables (1983) - (Farid Shawqi) Egyptian one-sheet

This is a 27" x 39" Egyptian poster designed by Seif and Wahid Fahmy for the 1973 Atef Salem film Les Miserables based on the 1862 Victor Hugo novel of the same title using a screenplay by Rafiq al-Saban and starring Farid Shawqi as Hamed Hamdan/Hassan al-Kashef. Plot summary: Hamed Hamdan is a poor man sent to prison for stealing a loaf of bread. He escapes, becomes rich and changes his name to Hassan al-Kashef, but though he uses his wealth charitably to help people in need, he is still subject to public disdain because the people know his origins.

Cast and crew: Victor Hugo, Atef Salem, Youssef Wahby, Farid Shawqi, Adel Adham, Laila Eloui, Mohsena Tewfik, Fardous Abdel Hamid, Abdel Waress Assar, Rafiq al-Saban, Ahmed Bahgat, Abdel Moneim Bahnassy
