11 Movie Posters That Really Know How To Sell A Film

2. For Your Eyes Only

For Your Eyes Only movie poster

Bond film posters always have plenty of action. Bond girls and the man himself, suited up, gun in hand. But ff there was ever a poster that has the hallmarks of everything Bond, it was this was one for For Your Eyes Only.

Bond himself is straddled by the ultimate Bond girl image - swimsuit, high heels and a weapon...a crossbow at that. It's very cleverly done. The never-ending legs drawn you into the figure at the centre of the poser; James Bond in his classic tux. To either side we get plenty of fantastic action shots that show Bond at its best. Underwater divers and killer sharks. A man (Bond?) dangling from a helicopter. An epic ski chase. Explosions. Cars out of control and a baddie honing in for the kill.

It is an exciting mix of sex and action.You don't need to look at the title. You know this is a Bond film instantly!
