Two International HYSTERIA Posters

Hysteria Today we have two new international posters for the upcoming Tanya Wexler’s period comedy Hysteria. The film centers around Dr. Joseph Mortimer Granville’s invention of the vibrator during the Victorian era and stars Maggie Gyllenhaal and Hugh Dancy. Gyllenhaal plays the daughter of the doctor, while Dancy plays the role of his young colleague who helps treats cases of female hysteria. Here’s the synopsis for the film:
Set in Victorian London, the film tells the tale of Mortimer Granville (Hugh Dancy), a young doctor disturbed by the way most hospitals ignore the latest research on germ theory, and still treat patients with bleedings and leeches. After being fired from his most recent job for speaking out on the matter, he ends up in the employ of Dr. Robert Dalrymple (Jonathan Pryce) who runs a private practice specializing in treating women who suffer from “hysteria” and come to the doctor for his precise digital manipulations in order to get a release. With the help of Mortimer’s best friend (Rupert Everett) they create a device that allows these women to achieve the desired result much more quickly. Complicating matters, Mortimer becomes enamored of Dalrymple’s strong-willed, feminist-minded daughter Charlotte (Maggie Gyllenhaal). Hysteria played at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival.
Jonathan Pryce, Rupert Everett, and Felicity Jones complete the supporting cast. Hysteria will be released to theaters on May 18th, 2012. Hysteria Poster Hysteria Poster
