Where to buy Movie posters?

I am looking to buy the italian movie poster of "Malena" and maybe a few more posters to decorate a new town house. I was wondering if anyone knows of a good internet site to buy posters from, and I am looking for suggestions on cool posters to hang up on the walls.

movieposter.com seems to have a whole bunch, but I haven't used them yet.

Yeah I usually use E-bay but right now they dont have the italian Malena so I am looking for a place that has some foreign posters. I tried Movieposters.com but no Malena. I will keep checking E-bay for now.

EBay for price definitely (especially for more recent films) . . . probably saved at least $10 a poster I've bought via eBay (as opposed to the allposters.com route)

How about frames for movie posters? Specifically pre-1985ish posters at 41x27. It is difficult as heck to get even modular frames at 41" and the premade frames at Suncoast-type stores are for modern 40x27 posters. I have a ton of older originals but don't want to pay $150-$200 each to frame them. I used to special order 41" segments from Hobby Lobby but now when I ask they look at me like I'm crazy.

Go to www.frameusa.com and click on either metal frames or poster frames. Both have 27 X41 sizes. I'd go with the metal ones myself. They look more professional in my opinion.
