I haven't gotten into trailers for 'Under the Skin'. There's nothing in the footage that really gains traction and a lot of the time those trippy storylines get bogged down -- too many coincidences, too much stuff not explained well, ninety minutes of wooden delivery of dialogue and actors whose eyes convey nothing (which seems de rigueur for farout spacy plots) -- I tend to drift watching such stuff.
This poster is nice, though. Has a sophistication, hints at some kind of cosmic story element. For whatever reason this graphic doesn't push Scarlett Johansson. You can hardly recognize her. Not sure what to make of that but somehow it seems like a positive thing. Not that the fact she's in it isn't a selling point, just that the studio/director (or whoever) wanted to showcase the story not the movie star -- which can't be bad considering the type of movie.
