# The Book Thief (2013) Original Movie Poster Rolled DS– 27x40 Liesel “Courage Beyond Words”

### **THE BOOK THIEF**

**Original U.S. Theatrical Movie Poster – Liesel / Book Burning Artwork**

A striking **original theatrical advertising poster** for the 2013 historical drama _**The Book Thief**_, directed by **Brian Percival** and adapted from the bestselling novel by **Markus Zusak**.

This powerful artwork features **Liesel Meminger**, portrayed by **Sophie Nélisse**, standing prominently in the foreground holding a book against her chest. Behind her, the streets of Nazi Germany are illuminated by a dramatic **book-burning fire**, with Nazi flags and uniformed figures visible in the background.

The design carries the film’s memorable tagline:

**“COURAGE BEYOND WORDS.”**

It also includes the promotional line:

**“FROM THE STUDIO THAT BROUGHT YOU LIFE OF PI”**

and the advance release copy:

**“NOVEMBER”**

This exact Liesel-centered design was part of the official theatrical campaign for _The Book Thief_ and is documented in contemporary movie-poster archives.

The imagery is especially effective because it captures the central themes of the film — **literature, resistance, courage and survival during Nazi Germany** — while placing the book itself at the visual center of the composition.

A strong collectible for fans of **The Book Thief, Markus Zusak, World War II cinema, historical dramas, literary adaptations, Sophie Nélisse, or original theatrical movie posters**.
