    1. I was hoping for a little more, but I suppose highlighting DDL is certainly the way to go…

    2. I think this is perfect for them. Unlike “War Horse” with this movie less is more. Spielberg is putting front a center a character that America knows all too well. Scrutiny will be given, criticism likewise. By showcasing DDL in black and white he is presenting the true mastermind behind it all.I am actually intrigued by the title. The last “N” is bigger than the other words. I wonder if that was on purpose?

    4. I’m not sure how I feel about this. On one hand, it seems fairly generic–on the other hand, it does have a simple, stark quality to it that I kind of like. For a first poster it’s okay, but I’m hoping for something more distinctive closer to the release.

    5. @GL – The “L” is bigger as well. I think it’s just the style they went for; bookending the title. I wouldn’t read too much into it.

      I like the poster. They really have the potential to make this an interesting character study, as opposed to a historical biopic, and the weariness that seems to exude from the picture gives me high hopes.
