This is a 27" x 41" US poster for the 1985 Wolfgang Peterson
film Enemy Mine based on a story by Barry Longyear, screenplay
by Edward Khmara and starring Dennis Quaid as Willis E. Davidge. Plot
summary: Willis E. Davidge is a late 21st Century spacecraft fighter
pilot for the Bilateral Terran Alliance (BTA) fighting a reptilian
humanoid race called Dracs for territory in space. In a dogfight
both he and his opponent Drac pilot Jeriba Shigan [Louis Gossett Jr.]
crash on an alien world with two moons called Fyrine IV. The planet
has a breathable atmosphere with water and a population of its own
animals. The two are hostile at first but gradually become friendly,
learn to help each other survive and exchange knowledge about their
respective languages and cultures. When Jeriba has a child and dies
in childbirth, Davidge raises it with the name Zammis [Bumper
Robinson] and forms a close bond with it. This causes him to lose his
hatred of Dracs; thus the film came to be known as a story about an
unlikely friendship. The poster was criticized for failing to convey
that idea.
