To Catch a Thief (1955), re-release poster (1965), US

Unframed: 41 x 27 in. (104 x 69 cm)

This stylish re-release poster features entirely different artwork to the film's original release poster, and was designed for a small re-release of the film ten years after its initial showing.

Owing to the limited re-release of the film a smaller quantity of these posters were printed, and they do not surface very often.

To Catch a Thief is one of Alfred Hitchcock's highly praised thrillers. This film makes spectacular use of its Riviera setting, car chases along perilous winding roads and romantic pauses along the glittering Mediterranean coast, which together create an effect that is both glamorous and suspenseful. The film pairs two of Hitchcock's preferred actors, Grace Kelly and Cary Grant.
