Fury - Poster Analysis

A battle-hardened Army sergeant named Wardaddy commands a Sherman tank and his five-man crew on a deadly mission behind enemy lines. Outnumbered, out-gunned, and with a rookie soldier thrust into their platoon, Wardaddy and his men face overwhelming odds in their heroic attempts to strike at the heart of Nazi Germany.                                                                The poster has little colour on it is it made up with mostly greys, greens and whites. The only little part of colour on this poster is of the badge which has been sewn onto the main actors jacket; if someone has never seen this film before, I think they would be able to tell just from the colours of the posters that it is a gloomy film and doesn't have much happiness in it. The poster shows the protagonist male leaning on what could be the turret of a tank,which would have been used in the war. On the turret it has the title of the film 'Fury' written on it used with white paint, which someone has use a paint brush to do so. The protagonist is wearing a green zip- up army jacket, and a backpack (something which would be very important to keep safe at the time), he is looking down at the floor and doesn't have any facial expression on his face. He has mud on his face and clothes which suggests that it is a muddy winter at the time which you can backup by looking at the sky in the poster, as it is gloomy and dark. The target audience for this film could range from early adult upwards, this film has quite a lot of violence, blood and strong use of language therefore, it probably wouldn't be suitable for young people.
The actors name at the top of the poster 'Brad Pitt' is written in bold capital letters right across the top of the page, this makes the name stand out on the poster and really gets the viewers attention, the font style really goes with the poster, really well because its simple but grabs the attention due to the sizing of it.
