Film posters are used to promote films through eye-catching visuals and information. They typically feature an image from the film to catch viewers' attention and portray the narrative. Titles are usually included to identify the film, unless it is already well known. Popular directors, producers, and actors may have their names prominently displayed to attract audiences. Additional information like quotes, ratings, awards, and release dates are sometimes included to further sell the film. The overall goal is to pique interest and hype for the film through the poster.
