Not So Much A Poster

Photo: The Dark Knight Poster

It's not so much a poster for 'The Dark Knight' as it is a conceptual trading card for The Joker. It has what all good portrait photographers strive for -- it captures character and makes you feel like you know the subject.

What's notable is that, even though the focus is not on the eyes, it's difficult to look into them -- they hint so strongly of The Joker's malcontent and hidden motives. This is yet another tribute to Ledger's depth of performance. An unconventional, beautifully executed portrait.
