This is original BILLY THE KID poster from the theatrical release in 15 cities.

About the film: Jennifer Venditti's award-winning debut film is a provocative coming-of-age story, an odyssey into the soul of an American teenager. Following Billy as he bicycles through the quiet streets of small town Maine, we watch him traverse the frustrating gap between imagination and reality, grappling with isolation and first-time young love. By turns exhilarating and disturbing, we see the world from the intimate view of an expressive and seemingly fearless outsider.

Now when you buy the poster, you will receive a special coupon for Billy The Kid, now out on DVD.

    "Unlike the exaggerated characters in even the best high school movies, theres something unshakably authentic to this fifteen year-old-kid from Brunswick, Maine with a rat tail who wears trucker t-shirts with cut-off sleeves. And its not just because Billy the Kid is a work of non-fiction, but rather that director Jennifer Venditti has managed the incredible feat of both finding and conveying cinematically a character who is absolutely singular and unique, and at the same time exists as an 'everyman' who sums up our collective adolescence."    --Cullen Gallagher, Hammer To Nail
