Analysis of "Amour" poster.

"Amour" is a 2012 french-language romantic drama film written and directed by the Austrian filmmaker Michael Haneke, starring Jean-Louis Trintigant, Emmanuelle Riva and Isabelle Huppert. The narrative focuses on an elderly couple, Anne and Georges, who are retired music teachers with a daughter who lives abroad. Anne suffers a stroke which paralyses her on the right side of her body. The film was screened at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Palme d'Or. It won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film at the 85th Academy Awards, and was nominated in four other categories: Best Picture, Best Actress in a Leading Role (Emmanuelle Riva), Best Original Screenplay (Michael Haneke) and Best Director (Michael Haneke). At the age of 85, Emmanuelle Riva is the oldest nominee for Best Actress in a Leading Role.

The reason why I have chose this poster for analysis is because the film is centered around the love story of an elderly couple which is similar in a way to our film as our film features an elderly widow reminiscing over the times she spent with her husband. We thought that the poster for "Amour" perfectly summed up what the film was about as it showed the husband protagonist affectionately holding his elderly wife's face. We have had an idea that we could do two separate posters, both being similar in style to the poster for amour but with one of them being with our protagonist as an elderly woman and one of them with her when she was much younger.
