Not a Photoshopped Man on a Wire
I’ve been walking by this movie poster for the past few weeks, twice a day. It’s the most evocative picture I’ve seen in recent memory; it’s working so many different angles, so well, and it’s doing it all while being grainy, unsharp and out-of-focus. I love it for it for appearing to be an obvious picture of a breaking news event, and for being so much more.
