Blindness poster actually simulates blindness


From iwatchstuff, Hmm, how can we portray blindness in a poster for the movie Blindness...? Wait, I think I got it! If my understanding is correct, being blind is a lot like always seeing the form of a beautiful, long-haired woman behind a haze of foggy glass, so how about that? Oh... you say it's more like eternal darkness in an unaccommodating world than a graceful female form exiting a shower? That's weird. Well, let's split the difference and go with the lady behind glass, but make the title lettering sort of like it's an eye chart--you know, the kind blind people use to make sure they're still living in shadow.

Not a great poster. When I first saw it I thought it said "B-lindness," with a soft "I" sound on "lindness."

And it's pretty generous calling that a "beautiful, long-haired woman" back there. For all you know, that could be Weird Al Yankovic.
