It’s amazing what color and environment can do for the impression you get from an image. This new and simplistically evocative poster for Derek Cianfrance’s
recently gimped BLUE VALENTINE is one I really like. The image of two lovers together is impassioned, but the cold surroundings and the cool color hue paint a much more screwed up (and frankly, realistic) picture of what this “love story” is really about.
BLUE VALENTINE opens in limited release (very limited release thanks to the NC-17 rating) on December 31st.
Synopsis: BLUE VALENTINE is the story of love found and love lost told in past and present moments in time. Flooded with romantic memories of their courtship, Dean (Ryan Gosling) and Cindy (Michelle Williams) use one night to try and save their marriage.
