Byoinzaka no kubikukuri no ie
Japan, 1979
Director: Kon Ichikawa
Starring: Koji Ishizaka, Yoshiko Sakuma, Junko Sakurada, Koji Shimizu
Great colourful illustration - love the hanging feet!
Interesting that it seems to be signed by "Maru Kawa" - given that Maru is Japanese for "zero", and Ichi is Japanese for "one" - could Marukawa/Ichikawa be one and the same person? Mr Ichikawa originally intended to be an artist, so no doubt he would be capable of illustrating his own movie posters. If anyone has insight on this, let us know!
