After researching into what features the majority of film posters contain, I came to the conclusion that for a film poster to be a successful one- in terms of attracting it's audience to it and creataing the perfect balance of enigma, that it must contain most of these features; main image, tagline, logo of institution, cast list, producer credits, certification, title, release date, review, star rating, website address (to obtain further informtaion about the film- also another way to market it).
The two film posters I had an in depth analysis of, and annotated contained 8 of these 11 features. They failed to display a certification, review and star ratings. This is most likely, simply because they chose not to, as there is no specific rule to what must be displayed on a film poster. By leaving out the certification however, some audience members who see this and think it looks to be a good film may be disappointed if they are not let in to see it at the cinema.
