Room

Poster for Room. A woman (Brie Larson) embraces a young boy (Jacob Tremblay) dressed in a raccoon-knit hat and plaid jacket. They are smiling lovingly at each other in front of a sky-blue backdrop shaped subtly like a room’s corner—representing the confined space central to the film. Above them is the tagline: “Love knows no boundaries.” The title ROOM is centered in a yellow box near the bottom, along with the note that it’s based on the best-selling novel.
