The good, the Bad and the Ugly Poster Decontrustion.

The Good, the Bad and The Ugly is an 1966 spaghetti western, which tells the story about three gun slingers races to find a cache of hidden gold.

The levels of all 3 characters match the title they are given, for example Clint Eastwood's character "Blondie"(AKA "The man with no name) is known as the "The Good", Lee Van Cleef's character, "Angel Eyes" is known as "the Bad" and Eli Wallach's character "Tuco" who is known as "The Ugly".

Clint Eastwood's Character looks good because of his large "God-like"size with his face fully illuminated, which hints at purity. His beard and the fact that he's smoking would hint at the fact he could be an anti hero, which would coincide with the role of a bounty hunter he plays in the film.

Van Cleef's character looks like a bad person, his dark clothes and the fact that he's the one holding the gun. He is also mostly encased in shadows, which adds an aura of mystery and darkness.

Eli Wallach's character is shown to be the least important, since he is the smallest and in a crouched position, although surrounded by gold, he is still seen has the lowest ranked person of the three.

The back ground looks very powerful and full of emotion, which looks like a sun set with can be very calming and auspicious.

The font is very typically western looking, which would tell an consumer of this poster that the genre of this film is a western. It also emphasises the key words, such as Good, Bad and Ugly. This makes the title stand out more. The "Clint Eastwood" Line is in a dark grey, possibly so it doesn't divert all the attention away from the title.

Total Film is a well known film magazine, The Total Film magazine logo is easily recognisable, the "Total" in "Total Film" in with put with in "Film" but in a different and often contrasting colour.

The medium close up of Natalie Portman with the "V" would attract fans of the film and comic book, and for those who haven't heard of the film or read the comic book would be curious and confused by the "V" sign and could be tempted to look further in to it. The close up could also attract fans of Natalie Portman to buying the magazine.

The whiteness of the back ground contrasts with her dark dress, her pale skin and the redness of the font as well as the big red "V"

Empire Film Cover deconstrustion

Empire magazine is one of the largest and well known film magaizines. The "EMPIRE" logo is in block capitals and in it's unmistakeable font, as well as being the only bright colour on the page, which would attract attention towards it, making it more eye catching.

The main feature from this poster is the close up of Star War's Darth Vader this would be eye catching to all Star Wars fans as Darth Vader is a very well known fictional character. This was made to commemorate the release of Star Wars Episode III The Revenge of the Sith, which was a major realase at the time. The back ground for the close up Darth Vader is space, this goes well with the theme of Star Wars being set in space.

"Behind the mask" would entice readers and Star Wars fans to possibly find out more about the movie attracting more people towards the magazine.
