simple cinema


It seems that minimalist renditions of popular films, books, and tv shows are cropping up everywhere. I don't know if it's a trend, but as a lover of that aesthetic I'm not complaining. How is there not genius in conveying so much, using the least bells and whistles possible.

Shoot the Glass (responsible for the above image) has an envy worthy collection of film posters that shouldn't be missed. The folks over at Minimalist Approach (a site that also makes my heart go pitter-patter) are to thank for the original post.
