It is rare for anyone to have an original poster signed, as the majority of signatures are on pieces of paper, photographs and video/dvd sleeves. It is unusual to have the film's poster with you when you try to obtain signatures.

This British black comedy was written and directed by Bruce Robinson. The story follows two unemployed substance-abusing actors who escape London life for the weekend, and stay at a cottage owned by Withnail's (Richard E. Grant) eccentric uncle, in order to restore their health. However, a different story unfolds ! This was Richard E. Grant's first full-length feature role. The film also stars Paul McGann, Richard Griffiths and Ralph Brown. Withnail and I has become a cult classic.
