Minimalist Movie Poster

Description: Create a minimalistic poster for a  film, TV series, etc. Look at these awesome examples using the various locations in the original Star Wars trilogy.

McMurphy: Which one of you nuts has got any guts?

McMurphy: I can’t take it no more. I gotta get outta here.
Chief Bromden: I can’t. I just can’t.
McMurphy: It’s easier than you think, Chief.
Chief Bromden: For you, maybe. You’re a lot bigger than me.

I’ve been thinking of various ideas for this assignment for a few days now, but  I knew it had to be this film. It is one of my all time favorites. The themes from the book about rebellion, society, and authority strike a strong chord with me, and I love the acting and direction by Milos Forman.

I was a bit worried it wasn’t minimal enough, but I think I nailed two of the big ideas of the film. Would love to hear your thoughts on the poster, the book, or the film. Never a bad time to discuss the rebel and society.
