Poster for But I’m a Cheerleader, featuring Natasha Lyonne front and center in a bright pink dress and long pink gloves, looking uncertain and expressionless against a surreal blue-sky background. Around her, multiple cheerleaders in red uniforms float or tumble mid-air in exaggerated poses. The title is in bold green letters, tilted playfully: “But I’m a Cheerleader.” A tagline at the bottom reads: “A Comedy of Sexual Disorientation.” The poster also notes the film’s selection at Sundance and Toronto Film Festivals.
But I’m a Cheerleader (1999)
Poster for What About Bob? featuring cartoonish, oversized silhouettes of Bill Murray and Richard Dreyfuss playfully tugging at each other. Below the silhouettes, the live-action characters shake hands awkwardly—Bill Murray in casual blue athletic wear and Richard Dreyfuss in a suit. The tagline reads: “Bob’s a special kind of friend. The kind that drives you crazy.” The film’s title is displayed in bold red letters, emphasizing the comedic and offbeat tone.
What About Bob? (1991)
Poster for The Hours featuring three women: Meryl Streep with glasses and a shawl holding a bouquet of roses, Julianne Moore with curled red hair and a green dress, and Nicole Kidman with a somber expression, wearing muted colors and a delicate necklace. Their portraits are tightly framed, visually linked yet emotionally distinct, hinting at different time periods. The tagline and credits are minimal, emphasizing the actors’ names and the film’s contemplative tone.
The Hours (2002)
Poster for Awakenings featuring a vast, tranquil expanse of water under a pale blue sky. In the distance, one man stands on a dock while another balances triumphantly on the surface of the water with arms raised. The tagline reads, “There is no such thing as a simple miracle.” The names Robert De Niro and Robin Williams appear at the top, with the film noted as being based on a true story.
Awakenings (1990)
Poster for Unsane featuring Claire Foy’s face layered with a translucent second image of herself, evoking confusion and psychological instability. The image is mirrored vertically, and the tagline “Is she or isn’t she?” reinforces the film’s theme of paranoia and unreliable perception. The text appears both right-side up and upside-down, heightening the sense of disorientation.
Unsane (2018)
Poster for Rain Man featuring Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise walking down a tree-lined road. Hoffman wears a beige jacket and looks contemplative, while Cruise, in sunglasses and a black blazer, carries a leather bag. The image captures the film’s journey motif and emotional tone of connection and discovery.
Rain Man (1988)
Poster for Split showing a close-up of James McAvoy’s intense gaze, partially obscured by jagged cracks resembling shattered glass across the image. The tagline reads, “Kevin has 23 distinct personalities. The 24th is about to be unleashed,” highlighting the film’s psychological thriller premise about dissociative identity disorder.
Split (2016)
Poster for Joker, featuring Joaquin Phoenix in full clown makeup and a bright red suit, dancing triumphantly on a staircase between two brick buildings. The sky is pale and the mood is dramatic, with the film title JOKER in bold white letters below. Release date: October 4.
