‘Joker’ Poster & ‘The Crown’ Script Latest To Join Cinema For Gaza Auction As Fundraiser Tops $200,000 Donations
deadline.comThe Cinema for Gaza auction has added a Joker poster signed by Joaquin Phoenix and a Crown script signed by Emma Corrin, as it passes more than $200,000 donations.
The campaign was launched last week by UK film professionals Hanna Flint, Julia Jackman, Leila Latif, Sophie Monks Kaufman and Helen Simmons, and has immediately taken off with works from the likes of Jonathan Glazer, Spike Lee and Tessa Thompson.
