Lolita

Film poster for the Ritzy’s, my favourite cinema in South London. Celebrating its centenary this year with a Poster Competition asking to recreate an iconic movie poster in your own style.

I chose Lolita and  the iconic heart shaped sunglasses (that funnily enough don’t actually appear in the film) and instead of showing her with the glasses I showed what she would see through them. Type choice is a nod to genius Pablo Ferro’s title sequence for Dr Strangelove (also by Kubrick and Peter Sellers).
