...According to TC Candler.
My first pet peeve is they start with #1. My second is that they're missing the points of some of the posters as fas as pop culture references and the like. My Third is that I prefer some other posters for some of these films to the ones listed. http://www.tccandler.com/columns/100...ie_posters.htm

I would have rated Lost in Translation the lamest poster ever.

I think a great film poster is one that promotes the film, but also stands alone as a piece of art in its own right.
The ones for A Clockwork Orange and 42nd Street manage this but 90% of the ones on that list are just, well, nice I suppose. |

while many of the ones you guys posted are very beautiful and interesting indeed, movie posters is something i would never bother worrying about.

My God! Some of those Polish film posters are among the best I've ever seen. A few of them seem to have been done by the same person. Would love to know who.
You must spread more zlotys around before giving them to o o o again. |

and to find out the name of the artists featured in this thread, you can do a search on this site (for example, with the name of the film, the name of the director, or the film's "country"):
http://www.cinemaposter.com/ there is also a history of the polish school of poster design on the main page. |
