The Conversation poster




Analysis of The Conversation poster


This poster for the film The Conversation has a large establishing shot of San Francisco, California showing us this is where the film is based. We can instantly see that the man on the left is the main character as he takes up most of the poster space. At first he looks like he might be the villain as we get the impression that he is stalking the couple on the right however the white light lit around him showing his innocence and purity. The couple at first look vulnerable as they are being watched, indicated by the camera lens symbol around them, showing their privacy is being invaded. However they are lit in red with dark black shadows around them. This suggests that they are evil as red represents blood, death and evil. 
It looks like an action, thriller movie, aimed more towards men as the colour scheme is very masculine; red, black and white.
