Analysing Film Noir Posters - 'Detour'

The next poster I am looking at is for 'Detour'.

• Costumes are typical of the film noir genre (smart suits, hats, overcoats, expensive dresses)
• Typical character types (smart femme fatale, victim, world-weary male character)
• Typical props (cigarettes, telephone)
• The style of the font reflects genre
• Collage-style layout
• Genre referenced in tagline
