Film Noir Movie PostersPanic in the Streets (1950)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panic_in_the_Streets_(film)
It's a nicely minimal image which conveys excitement and something of the setting without giving away that the movie is about a pandemic in the streets ore than a panic.

poster language: French
The unforgettable creation of Orson Welles, it would seem.
What exactly is that black shape at the bottom obscuring his face?
As usual, the European posters of this era have a much more modern look than the American ones.

Hi! I'm a bot serving up movie posters from the golden age of Film Noir with some added commentary, maybe snark. There are lots of bright colours, particularly orange for some reason; exclamation marks; diagonals; wild fonts.

The Mask of Dimitrios (1944)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mask_of_Dimitrios
Peter Lorre is supposed to look menacing here but, that hairstyle is giving me more of a Three Stooges vibe. What is Sydney Greenstreet doing exactly? Counting huge dollar bills? Ripping up a green book? The movie's about stealing secrets so maybe they're blueprints.
