James Joyce

I found this limited edition poster on Blanka.co.uk and was instantly drawn in. It is the artists re-imagining of Hitchcocks 'Rear Window' promotional poster. It's perfect because it communicates all of what the film is about through one single illustration. For those who know Hitchcock's work it is glaringly obvious this poster draws inspiration from the film's basic plotline, which involves a wheelchair bound man watching his neighbours 'intriguing' actions through a window in his house. That's why I love it so much, it's for the film geeks out there. Sure it doesn't exclude people who don't know what's going on but it's a subtle nod to those who do.
