I agree with the comments that the bold type does not work well with the image.

I don't know if this is a nice photo or just a decent poster.

Definitely digging this. Great usage of multiple planes. Great usage of color and perspective. Even like John Hawkes looming in the background out-of-focus. A welcome design away from from the QR code one sheets. And I agree about the quote, looks almost she's about to snort it. Great poster!

Besides the annoying quote I really love this poster and the type works fine but I can just speak for myself.
Good work Empire Design, thumbs up!

"Hand-written" doesn't have to mean thin. Brush strokes, calligraphy, etc. You can have legible type without going the tired studio route of knock-you-over-the-head bold face. Besides, the image is arresting enough to draw the viewer in, the type doesn't have to work as hard.

I disagree Robert, the type needs to be simple and bold so it's nice and legible and doesn't get lost into the image like hand drawn type would. In my opinion the type and image compliment each other beautifully here. A happy balance, which is what all good communication should have.

Someone should airbrush the distracting quote out. Otherwise, perfect.

I'd say this superimposed image does a nice job of conveying the restlessness, nervous energy, and the overall tension portrayed in the trailer. The sun-kissed palette gives it an appropriately hazy, dream-like look. I'm less pleased with the type, though. When will studies just let a good image breathe? The quote is annoying me with it's central placement - it's just not that important. The typeface for the title doesn't match the image, something hand-written would have worked much better. Even better, two different people's handwriting to emphasize the duality of her cult life and her normal life.
