Description: Vintage original 27x41 in. US one-sheet poster from the smash 1970's bicycle racing-themed comedy/drama, BREAKING AWAY, released in 1979 by 20th Century-Fox and directed by Peter Yates, in which a small-town boy obsessed with the Italian cycling team vies for the affections of a college girl. Unrestored and folded as originally issued, this vintage original one-sheet is in fine- condition with a 3 in. diagonal tear on the center of the top border that goes into the background area; a very small tear at the first cross-fold intersection; and very small scattered creases in the bottom two panels that are unobtrusive.The term "Cutters" heard in the film is used to represent Bloomington, Indiana townies who work cutting rock in the local limestone quarries. The production team decided to call the Bloomington townies "cutters" because they felt the actual local nickname ("stoners" or "stonies") would draw a parallel to drug references for viewers who were not raised in the area.
