Basicaly, is it possible to get a huge print made out of a screen shot from a film?

Ive seen loads of prints for sale like scarface etc, but i was wondering if there is a company that will make a specific one?

I was watching "Hostage" the other night with Bruce Willis, near the end, a lad sets fire to the hall way, walks through holding 2 petrol bombs. Looks pretty shit hot and fancy a 2m print of it in my room..... if possible....?

Random shot of it but you get the idea..

There will be places that will do it, but.. Taking a capture from a moving image will be of pretty poor quality I would guess, espeically when blowing it up so large too?

I didnt know if there was a way of buying high quality screen shots, getting it on a disc then getting it made into a print, i image the resolution of some screenshots are amazing so wouldnt look too bad?

Its a famous shot, I'm sure I've seen it somewhere before (from the movie obviously) when it was released. There will be places that do it though, ask at your local printing place.

yeah if you can get a clear screen shot a printing place will be able to get it printed on canvas for you. I have got a scarface print on canvas in my living room.

You may be able to get a copy of the 35mm cell - any good photo shop will be able to increase that to a 150cm print easily.

Speak with the film distributors and see if they can help.
