Mystery Films as Colour Posters

Mystery films play with what you do not see right away. Their colours are often muted and cool, with a few outliers that become important in hindsight. With Memento, The Prestige or Shutter Island, a second look at the poster pays off just as much as a second viewing of the film. The rings variant suits stories that run in circles. A gift for people who have theories after the credits and enjoy explaining them.
