The Artist



Who knew black and white could be so appealing.  This is so beautiful and so simple. I love it. I don’t know the movie but I want to see it now, and I hope it is as wonderful as the poster.
The angle their gazes create is perfect. His downturned head and her upturned face create an excellent diagonal line that crosses the page and draws your eyes around the page.  Their shoulders mimic the angle and so does the line where their bodies cut off.  The light highlights their face and helps them stand out from the dark background subtly. This makes it intriguing and sort of seductive.
The font choice is perfect. It is artistic and simple. The red “the” is a nice subtle touch of color. This is so simple and so nice. The passion in their eyes is mimicked in the layout, lighting and font. This whole poster is wonderful and romantic.
