Comedy posters - analysis
Uncle Buck's film poster indicates that John Candy plays the title role of Uncle Buck and his character is different than the rest of the family. The stereotypical comedic expressions on people's faces and typical middle-class American values and contrasting ways of life shown establish the film's comedic nature and center theme of fun for the whole family. The dull colors of Spy's poster also suggest a light, fun movie. This film positions the experienced agents on either side of the strangely dressed female agent, clearly marking her as the protagonist and differentiating the comedy through her placement despite the serious expressions and writing elsewhere on the poster.
