Inglorious Bastards - Analysis of Film Poster


The background is red which resembles blood and gore which is a lot to do with the action in the film.
The white background makes the red look more powerful.
We can tell that Brad Pit is the leader of his group because he is in the centre of the picture and the other two who are dressed similarly are following him.
They each are wearing dark and heavy clothing which reflects on their strong masculinity.
They also have a weapon which suggests that they are a gang going after another group of people who believe in the opposite of what they do. Moreover their facial expressions look as if they are ready for some action.
Their enemy is the man in the hat who is in the background covered in a streak of blood which tells the audience that these three men are after his blood.
The man in the background is higher classed; this is shown through his uniform which suggests that he is high up in the army, working for the government.  We can not even see him in possession of a weapon, although the two women in front who look like they are guarding him are holding weapons. This allows him to be seen as a well protected man.
The women also look very glamorous, higher classed and  attractive although the fact they are holding a small gun each, which looks as if it could be easily hidden makes them seem manipulative and cunning, which is also reflected in their facial expressions. This also suggests that they are using their looks as a weapon to lure men in.
The pieces of writing are positioned making it easy to read and so the audience focuses on the picture first and then the writing.
The writing used for the movie name, subheading and the cast list are all easy to read because of the bold font and the colours which is a contrast to their background
