Film Cover - Silence of the Lambs

The colours of the cover indicate that the movie is dark and it for tells that the genre of the film. The dark colours, black white and grey, highlight the bright colour yellow of the strange animal on the front. The icon in the front of the dvd is an unknown animal. It can present the audience as curious and interested and can capture the audiences attention from before opening the and starting to watch the movie. This acts an enigma code which will intrigue the audience to watch the movie. In the background you see the main character in the background but she is dark and not in colour. However, the close up is of her face and highlighting the eye. This can be interepted as something that she sees. She is famous as well and this can convince people to watch the movie as she is a good actor. The writing is thin and white which highlights the title and this creates a creepy and eery feeling. This resembles the genre and the feeling of being uneasy and on the edge.
