Poster before 1950



Poster before 1950 LINK

Year: 1947
Artist: ?

This poster is one with no direction in my opinion, and for that matter, I feel it lacks in unity, is too crowded (has too much weight?), has no rhythm and seriously lacks direction. It literally looks like frames and scenes from the movie were cut out and thrown into the space, and then the artist decided to put emphasis on the main image (the giant face) by coloring it, which is about the only thing going for it. But by emphasizing  the main image, the other smaller ones just clutter up the surrounding space on the page. I just don't know what to focus on in this example.
