RESEARCH: FILM POSTERS: "FILL ME IN".

The film poster for this film is used to inform the audience of the genre of the movie. The main focus of the poster is on the characters that are positioned centrally within the poster. They are the main feature of the poster and the figures are dressed in bold colours juxtaposing the white background. The use of white in the poster draws the viewers’ attention to the figures reinforcing how they are the main focus point within the poster. The genre of drama is conveyed by the expression and body language of the main figures within the poster. The female on the right is presented to the viewer as irritated towards the male within the poster this is proved by her crossed arms and the look of disdain expressed on her face. The female on the left is shown to be leaning on the male looking in the opposite direction of the other woman. The male is the dominant figure within the film and is presented as if he is torn between the two women, the fact that one of the females in seen to be leaning on his back may suggest that romance occurred without the other female knowing, reinforced by the caption at the top of the poster “ Would you give him a second chance?”, this is presented in red capital letters with the word you “you” coloured in black, makes it stand out to the viewer and giving a more personal view to the poster. The red text of the title looks as if it has been shaded in; the colour of the text is related to the danger as well as love therefore proving that it has a double meaning, portraying the emotions of the film to the viewer.  The film was easy to find, this was proved when it came up as the first link to the film when searched on the internet, thus proving that it was a well distributed film.
