High contrast. Minimalist design. Emphasize movie star. Dominating typeset. This. Is. A. French. Movie poster. And yet it has all the Hollywood elements too. All you need is A Girl, A Gun, and Hyperbolic pull-quotes. (Jamais! Jamais!)
Don't get me wrong, I like the pastel gradient used, if only because it reminds me of the 2018 campaign of A Simple Favor.
Furthermore, the selling point in the film is the 'de-glamourization of Nicole Kidman' and this poster hits that mark (not as bluntly as the USA key art or UK quad), but with a bit more style in that choice of low angle. Kidman gives a towering performance in Karyn Kusama's latest film, and this poster implies that with its choice of angle.
