Ya, you betcha dere: Help me find an unusual "Fargo" poster

July 18, 2005 9:30 AM

I'm looking for a poster from the movie "Fargo," but not the one that's commonly available. It's easy to find the one that looks like a cross-stitched sampler and says "A homespun murder story." But instead I want the one that says "A lot can happen in the middle of nowhere." (Actually, as long as it says that, I don't care what the image looks like.) I believe it may have been to promote not the movie, but the DVD, or a DVD special edition. I've searched various movie-poster stores, eBay, etc, but they all have the sampler one. Any ideas? Thanks!

I do not know how well it would come out but you could use this dvd cover image and make a custom poster using a website such as Zazzle.com.

They allow you to make just one or more.

I've found the poster for sale with that tagline in Spanish and French (ebay), but not english.

Thanks for the help so far. Still looking. One of those Google images looked promising, but the site seems to be gone except for the image.

The frustrating thing is I swear I bought the poster I wanted four years ago, but we moved, and in the rush of moving, it never got sent to our correct address. And I bought it online, but can't track the seller.

FreezBoy writes "with that tagline in Spanish"

That's Portuguese!

mr_roboto - like there's a difference.

Gael - I know I've seen that poster before as my roommate had it on his wall back in the day. I'm surprised that we can't find a version of it, at least on ebay.

It's hard to read, but the tagline is there.
