To create an alternative film poster using only two colours, for a Jack Nicholson film. The Broken Land (1962).
In the film a cowboy rides into a small town that is ruled with an iron fist by a corrupt sheriff. He becomes involved with a pretty young town girl and some residents who are trying to oust the sheriff, resulting in a robbery, a murder and his being pursued by a vengeful posse.
The red represents the blood thirst of the film, while the orange is used to imply the optimism of the villagers. The rocky outcrop break in the poster represents the tension of the villagers and protagonist against the sheriff.
