The Mommie Dearest posters


I heard the director saying that the first poster was the classy ripped photograph poster and after the film premiered they changed it to a more campy poster, does anyone have it or can show it?? Also, how long was its theatrical run? Given all the changes they say happened after its release one would think it lasted for 7 months in the theaters.

Here's the ad they started using that caused Frank Yablans to go ballistic

And here's the French movie poster that I think is really cool

Thank you, I hadn't seen the first one. Do you know for how long was Mommie Dearest in theaters? Back then films would be longer in theaters, I guess that explains the change in marketing which had me confused before.
