Masquerade is a 1988 romantic mystery thriller starring Rob Lowe as a yacht captain who becomes involved with a wealthy young heiress, played by Meg Tilly, in a story of seduction, deception and murder. Kim Cattrall and Doug Savant co-star.

POSTER DESIGN FEATURES: Dark photographic Australian Daybill dominated by an intimate image of Rob Lowe and Meg Tilly, contrasted with the torn-paper style red MASQUERADE title. The sparse design and four-part “An heiress. A hustler. A set-up. A murder.” headline strongly emphasise the film's romantic-thriller storyline.

COLLECTOR'S NOTE: Masquerade combines several notable late-1980s names, including Rob Lowe, Meg Tilly and Kim Cattrall. It is also an early feature screenplay by Dick Wolf, who later created the Law & Order television franchise, while its score was composed by five-time Academy Award winner John Barry. The film was shot extensively around New York and the Hamptons, including East Hampton, Montauk Harbor and Shelter Island.
