Billy Liar Poster Pop Art

Stylish pop art remix of the classic “Billy Liar” poster from its release in 1963.

Step into the colourful world of “Billy Liar” with Art & Hue’s new pop art collection, inspired by the seminal 1963 film of the British New Wave.

Directed by John Schlesinger, based on Keith Waterhouse’s novel & screenplay with Willis Hall, the film stars Tom Courtenay with an outstanding supporting cast including Helen Fraser, Julie Christie, Gwendolyn Watts, George Innes, Leonard Rossiter, Rodney Bewes, Wilfred Pickles & Mona Washbourne.

Considered one of the most significant and revolutionary films in British cinema, subverting the social realist and kitchen sink genres with its use of fantasy sequences and documentary-style location shooting, “Billy Liar” reflected the changing cultural and social landscape of Britain in the early 1960s and its influence can still be seen in contemporary cinema and television today.

An official collaboration with Studiocanal to mark 60 years of the film’s innovative storytelling and groundbreaking portrayal of Northern working class characters in 1960s Britain, Art & Hue has delved into the archives to uncover images from the iconic film “Billy Liar” which have been transformed into stylish pop art prints, featuring Art & Hue’s signature halftone style (halftone is an age-old technique that uses dots to make up the printed image, similar to newspapers or comic books).
