Film Posters - Freedom Writers

The 2007 film Freedom Writers was about a teacher (Hilary Swank) who was new at a failing school in the middle of a racial war and helps the teenagers in her class better themselves.
The poster is yellow and black with the faces of Hilary Swank (middle person,top row) and a few of the other main characters in the film. Under each persons picture, there is a small phrase. This is suggesting what each character is fighting for in their own lives within the film; making the audience want to watch the film and find out what happened to each of them. Between the two rows of characters is a large yellow rectangle with black writing in it. The first line is the strapline which says Dont pretend you know our story. This makes you feel like the characters are personally talking to you and saying to actually find out what their story is first before you judge them or the film itself.  The next line is slightly larger and is Hilary Swanks name as the film is about her and how she helps the kids in her class, as well as her own personal life. The next line is the film title Freedom Writers which is in a much bigger font. Underneath is film credits and names of directors, producers, actors etc. Then again in a bolder font is 'coming soon'. I think this poster grabs peoples eyes because of the bright yellow, and each saying under the character pictures draws the audience, making them more likely to go and watch the film. The film has a young cast which also suggests that its aimed more towards teenagers and young adults.
