Michael Kohlhaas Campaign Book

[michael_gothard]

This is the front cover of a four-page leaflet sent out to cinemas before a film arrived. Michael's only appearance in the leaflet is in the cover picture and the credit list.

This particular leaflet was sent to a cinema in Cork, Eire.



Along with the Campaign Book, this insert, suggesting ways to publicise the film, was sent.



Only a brain like that of Mr Farson, the advertising executive from ‘Herostratus’ who tried to market a young man’s suicide, could have come up with ‘Fancy dress competition’ as a way of putting a positive spin on a Kafkaesque tale of cruelty, injustice and death like ‘Michael Kohlhaas.’
