Uninvited Design: Minimal Film Posters

A random collection of film posters in a minimalistic approach

The collection does not mean to include any kind of most-favourite or 15-films-you-should-watch-before-you-shit stuffs. I have chosen the titles randomly and for an impulsive guy like me, it is no surprising that after spending a few hours to think the list looks alright, I am considering to include a few more titles that I really like watching. I feel I should include some of the films that I never mind re-watching any time, such as The Godfather and the Bourne series. A few recent films like Dallas Buyers Club and American Hustle would also make it in the list, if I open the PSD file again, but not! Let it be for the day.

You can also check the posters of some local Manipuri films in the Sunday Matinée.

Life’s much easier with the universal search!)
