Kino International in Berlin/Germany - "Die Brücke" 1964

I'm sure, Kino International in Berlin is the most printed cinema on postcard worldwide. This is No. 20 in my collection showing different posters - and it is not the last one.
The poster today advertises the film Die Brücke / The Bridge, a German anti-war film by Bernhard Wicki from 1959. 
It tells about the last days in war 1945 in a small Bavarian town. Seven underaged boys receive the militarily senseless order to defend a bridge from the advancing US troops. Only one will survive the mission ...

The film received many awards and nominations, among them a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film in 1960. It is one of the best German films of all time. It came to East German cinemas on 4 September 1964.


The postcard was published by Graphokopie H. Sanders KG Berlin.
The poster was designed by Jürgen Großmann.

  1. Yes, there are certainly very many cards of this cinema. From my experience, I guess there are more different cards of the "Chinese Theatre" in Hollywood, and maybe the "Kino Rossiya" in Moscow, but of course there's no way to prove that :-)
