I wish I saw this film entitled Elena. I wish I could know the synopsis perfectly. I wish I could tell you more about Andrey Zvyagintsev, beside the fact that he directed the Golden Lion winner movie The Return and that his last name needs more vowels.
And, finally, I wish more movie posters would have this style.I am not afraid to say this is a very nice graphic work, that expresses how a poster should look like. It doesn't show what the movie is going to be about but it subtly suggests the dramatic touch that will torment the characters of this movie.
This movie seems to be about an elder couple, with children from previous marriages and a strong economic discrepancy which will become an even bigger issue when the man has a heart attack and decides to ponder on his will. Knowing this, it is remarkable that the graphic approach reveals just a male silhouette staring at a crow while contemplating his life. What better than this to express the general feeling of the movie?
The title font reveals a clean but edgy attitude that matches perfectly with the two color design. At this point I can just hope that this movie will be as promising as it looks from the cover (and as suggested by the several awards that are an active part of the graphic package).
In conclusion I wish this movie will be up to the expectations, perfectly portraying a sad story that, as in a dichotomy, will make me happy to have seen.
