Poster analysis By Hayley Outhwaite

This is a poster of the film Ghost. When i first saw this poster my immediate impression was that this film was about ghosts and other spiritual factors. By the way the surrounding area of the two actors in this poster is highlighted this links in with the title of this film 'ghost' as when i initially think of a ghost i think of bright lights. The tag line 'believe' also links in with the title of the film as not many people believe in ghosts so i get the impression that this film is also going to be based upon the belief in ghosts and maybe trying to get people to change their views on spiritual aspects such as ghosts.
This film relates to our film 'The lost Hart' as our film too incorporates spiritual factors as one of the main characters 'Emily-Jayne' turns out to be a figure of Lucy Caskcan's imagination and is in fact a ghost.
The way the male actor in this film is kissing the females neck signifies that these two actors are in a passionate relationship of which ties in with the sentence above the title on the poster 'before Sam died he told Molly he would love and protect her forever.' This sentence also tells the audience a lot about the two actors such as the fact they are in a relationship and that the male actor obviously loves his partner very much, however the way it says he will 'protect' her forever gets the audience thinking that maybe something bad happens in the film that he has to protect her from.
All in all I feel that even though this poster is not very complex it tells a lot about the film and this is what i want our poster to be like.
