The Internet Movie Poster Awards site is a trove of visual inspiration. Above is the winner of the 2010 contest for best poster, for Rabbit Hole. Calling it equally beautiful and disturbing, the judges wrote: 

A good poster usually tells a story with a single image. This one uses nine snippets of images to tell its story of the emotional ups and downs of two people. At either side of the design the characters are alone, in darkness, and in pain. In the center they are together, their world is brighter, and they are happy. One can read the order of emotions either way. Do they begin in happiness and end in despair or is it the other way around?

The poster was designed by Ignition Print.
