Can you create a minimalist film poster that captures the essence of the film Broken Arrow?

Is should "sell" the movie to passers-by and needs to be portrait format suitable to be seen from a distance.

You were quick off the draw there, partner!

Here's a later movie:

Yup!
There are many different 'Broken Arrow' movies.

So, there are many possibilities for this 'minimalist poster'.

Rik, I'm hopeful we collect a full set this month.

Nothing abstract this time.
I just wanted to do this one.
And sticking with the 1950s film, rather than the more modern one.

Rik, I like the font and its treatment. Nice looking layout, professional.

That's excellent, Gary.
As for the film, says it all.

Thanks, Mike.
The 'A' for Arrow lent itself to be used in that way.

Hullo Chaps and Chapesses,

Better late than never I guess. Here are my two takes on Broken Arrow, 1950 and 1996 style. I only had one go at each as I was watching telly whilst doing them and I have many other things to do.

Anyway enjoy them, hate them or all points in between as is your wont.

Cheers
David
