DIRECTOR & CAST: La Bandera (released in the United States as Escape from Yesterday) is a 1935 French drama film directed by Julien Duvivier and starring Annabella, Jean Gabin and Robert Le Vigan. It was based on the 1931 novel La Bandera by Pierre Mac Orlan. After committing a brutal murder in Paris, a Frenchman flees to Barcelona where he enlists in the Spanish Foreign Legion. He is sent to fight in Morocco where he unexpectedly bonds with his comrades and marries a local woman before his past begins to catch up with him. Like Duvivier’s other works of the period, the film is infused with poetic realism.
The film was made at the Joinville Studios in Paris with sets designed by the art director Jacques Krauss. Location shooting took place in Barcelona and at barracks in Tetuán in Spanish Morocco
CONDITION GRADING
Our condition grading terminology is defined as follows. Most movie posters prior to 1990 were folded by the printer (factory folded) before being shipped to theaters. When a condition grading includes the word ‘folded,’ that usually refers to factory folds. If you have questions regarding the condition of a specific poster, feel free to get in touch.
