You know what is great besides French New Wave films, the acutal posters for the Nouvelle vague cinema. All of them werre beautifully designed - the whole movement had a great design sense from the very beginning. I don't think anyone said 'hey I am starting the nouvelle vague and it is going to have a lot of great posters." No, it happened because of the times and graphic arts always expose a paricular time period and place.
