ONE-SHEET MOVIE POSTER BAN BY CENSORS AT MPAA

The Motion Picture Association of American ban the movie poster for the new 'Sin City' sequel - 'A Dame To Kill For'.  The poster (see insert) of Eva Green was ban by the MPAA as being "in a state of relative undress". The poster, as you can see, shows Green in a sheer gown which the MPAA censor board stated showed "nudity - curve of under breast and nipple area visible through the gown"

Sin City is based upon a comic book and the first film became noted for its ultra-violence, and gloomy, dark scenes.  The new sequel, to be released in August, picks up where the first film left off and follows the four vignettes that make up the plot.  The title story features Eva Green in a dangerous live triangle.

The sequel is shot and will be released in 3D. Robert Rodriguez, who also directed the first 'Sin City', stated, "There's something about the way 'Sin City' works that I thought would lend itself very well to 3D because the images are so stripped down and abstract ... you almost can see it better in 3D. It'll be really cool." 

As was the first 'Sin City', this is noir crime fiction and over-the-top cinematic visuals at there best. A black and white film flecked with splashes of color and pronounced violence overlaid with sexual content. I really liked the first 'Sin City' - it was a visual trip with down-and-dirty, street-level narrative that figured perfectly with the imagery. Where can I get this one-sheet?
