The Story of Adele H.

A Japanese B5 movie flyer issued in 1976 for François Truffaut’s The Story of Adele H. (1975), starring Isabelle Adjani. This single-sheet, double-sided flyer belongs to the film’s original Japanese theatrical release period.

The front is built around a tightly cropped portrait of Isabelle Adjani, with another face entering from the right. Her striking blue eyes stand out against the pale background, while a lavender border and large Japanese lettering frame the composition. A small architectural illustration appears beneath the title.

The reverse shifts to a predominantly violet-blue layout, combining two film images, the French title L’Histoire d’Adèle H., production credits, and extensive Japanese commentary arranged in columns. Along the bottom, a special-admission-ticket notice sits beside a boxed Cinema 2 theatre listing.

The contrast between the intimate photographic front and the information-heavy reverse is characteristic of the Japanese flyer format. This 1976 flyer documents the Japanese theatrical presentation of Truffaut’s 1975 film, rather than a later revival.
