Featured Replies

Anyone have a lead on the typeface used for the Lion in Winter movie poster? Not sure if it was ever digitized.

Apologies if this isn't helpful, but I found a hi-res image of the poster and I'm pretty sure the title and top billings are hand-drawn.  Each letter with multiples is slightly different-- The three capital "I's", two capital "E's", three capital "N's" and two capital "T's".

 

To me it's hand drawn inspired by Albertus and Lydian with serifs and an uncial E.
