Beijing News (reporter Teng Chao) On December 23, British time, the British film magazine "Little White Lies" selected the world's top 20 movie posters in 2018, and two poster works by Chinese designer Huang Hai were selected, of which the Chinese poster he designed for the Japanese movie "Thief Family" won the championship, and at the same time, he ranked 10th in the sea registration designed for the introduction of animation "Totoro" in Japan. In addition, movie posters such as "The Black Party", "Roma", "Darling", and "The Ballad of Buster Scrugers" were also shortlisted.
This list is mainly for the movie posters released this year, and does not involve evaluating the artistic quality of the film, so there are also films such as "Megalodon" in the list. Founded in 2005, Little White Lies is a bimonthly magazine dedicated to supporting great films and the talent who made them.
20. Megalodon The Meg
The film itself may be disappointing, but this illustrated poster inspired by the shark's open mouth is great, and it hints at one of the few highlights in the film: the confrontation between a puppy swimming in the deep sea and a beast.
19. Skate Kitchen
This poster shows the actors using bananas as ramps under the New York City skyline, capturing some of the youthful energy that is so common in movies.
18. "Happy Lazzaro" by Lazzaro Felice
The film was nominated for this year's Cannes Palme d'Or. The protagonist of the film, Lazzaro, is so pure that he is often mistaken for a simple mind, and this poster seems simple, but the details are quite complicated, just look at the details on Lazzaro's hair.
17. Game Night
The film was an unexpected joy at the beginning of the year, and the poster evoked a Hitchcock-esque tone while also teasing the film's playful title.
16. "Heartbreak" Unsane
The film is a new work by director Steven Soderbergh, the poster looks a bit like a playing card, and the duality of this clever and irrational poster shows that the heroine's story is more than one side.
15.《老人和枪》The Old Man and the Gun
A film starring veteran Hollywood star Robert Redford, the poster is simple and impressive, but it's even more exciting when you discover that it's actually an American single poster for Robert Redford's 1972 film Tiger Over the Mountain.
14. Hereditary
In this frightening horror film debut directed by Ali Esther, the real devil is reflected in the details, and there is something disturbing about this poster, which uses the heroine's profession as an interior installation artist to create details.
13. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs
We can usually rely on the Coen Brothers' movie poster designs. This poster looks like the leather texture of a book, reflecting the structure of the film, and the font in the poster leads to several paths, which is very creative.
12. Madeline's Madeline
The collage design in the poster reflects the grassroots art movement of the work of female director Josephine Deckard, with newcomer Helena Howard taking a front and center between Miranda Jolie and Molly Parker. The details of the snake are also a nice idea and will feel more meaningful when you've seen the movie.
11. American Animals
The film is based on a true story, and in 2004, at transylvania University in Lexington, Kentucky, four young people ruined their lives for a painting and committed one of the most reckless robberies in American history. In this poster, the silhouette of a flamingo is approaching four thieves of the future, and its simple shape is impressive.
10. Totoro next to The Cat
In order to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the release of Miyazaki's film "Totoro", a digitally restored version of the film was introduced in China on December 14, and the current domestic box office is 149 million. Chinese poster designer Huang Hai designed this poster for the film, and its simple and warm design is very compatible with the temperament of the film.
9. "This House Is Built by Me" The House That Jack Built
The film is the latest work of Danish director Ras von Trier, whose film posters have a very provocative style. The poster designers, mr. and Mrs. Albert Einstein, designed a poster for the film's hell scene, aptly hinting at the true meaning of the film. The couple had previously designed posters for Female Addicts for each character who reacted at the climax.
8. "Her Smell" Her Smell
The release date of the movie about rock punk stars has not yet been determined, but the poster for the show from the American Music Festival is still quite good. The letters and grainy details on the poster retain the film's '90s aesthetic style, while the "SS" logo refers to the name of the band Becky played by Elizabeth Moss.
7.《宠儿》The Favourite
Designer Vasilis Marmatakis began designing all the posters for The Ogus Lance Moss film from the 2009 film Dog teeth. Last year, his design for "The Death of the Sacred Deer" was impressive, and this year's disturbing poster for the Oscar-seeded "Darling" was equally eye-catching.
6. The Sisters Brothers
The film, which was shortlisted for the main competition unit of this year's Venice Golden Lion Awards, is a Western crime film, the poster design is fashionable and simple, and it seems to imply that death always follows the two protagonists in the film...
You Were Never Really Here
Last year's Cannes Film Festival's main competition section was shortlisted for the film, and the poster positioning Jo, the killer Played by Jacqueline Phoenix, as the central character of the story seemed appropriate, but the superposition of the two images also felt like the cover of a modern version of Pulp Fiction.
4. Roma
All the posters for Roma, directed by Alfonso Caron, are stunning, but this one is the best, it cleverly makes use of the space's blank space and contrasts the black-and-white and gold titles. The picture of the servant and the little master lying on the ground as the plane skimmed overhead seemed like an insignificant snapshot of childhood, but in Cuarón's hands it was elevated to something beautiful.
3. First Reformed
When you see a Paul Schrader movie poster, you usually don't think of the words "elegant" and "simple," but they surprise you every time. The film's poster, where black space and flames split the melancholy face of lead actor Ethan Hawke in two, is a stark contrast, and it's one of the most striking posters we've seen this year.
2. "The Black Party" BlacKk Klansman
The finalist film of this year's Cannes Film Festival, directed by Spike Lee, is particularly striking, with the masked Ku Klux Klan, played by John David Washington, occupying the entire frame, with a picture that reflects the tricky political issues in the film, which is really great.
1. Shoplifters
Chinese designer Huang Hai Design has once again entered the list, this time appearing in the first place. In this poster for Thief Family, he reimagines one of the film's best scenes as a traditional Japanese tapestry, resulting in this stunning work.
