I posted this pages ago but here we go again. THIS is a film poster. Art direction, typography, concept in relation to film. Timeless, powerfull and a perfect summation of the film. Fuck 99% of these illustrator fan posters - just not v.good. As someone who uses digital tools everyday its hard to say but I think its the computer that makes them so soulless and pretty bad.
Anyway, enjoy an example of the golden age of film poster.

- the /s is code for sarcasm -- this is a lovely poster and the typography relicts the quiet terror that builds slowly in the film. love it.Gnash

Funny,just been going through some of my fave films and I would say 75-85% have a terrible poster... including most of Scorsese's best work. Getting old now but for most of my life I have loved great film posters, so seductive when done well - part of the whole package / anticipation / excitement of cinema. A sign of getting old is saying how things used to be better but do you think film posters are quite poor these days? Not many great examples from the last 20 years, show me some.( and please no Adobe illustrator vector visual pun fan art)

Re: Scarabin's comment on painterly style - I've always loved this poster - so rich.
And also this Joe Dante classic
A wonderful shot here. The mood captured in a single frame - brilliant.
Another wonderful shot - so much power.
So dope
Walken with some crazy shit on his head - ya'll see this flick - freaked me out when I was a kid!
Nice airbrushing!
