Poster for 'Lincoln'

I'm somewhat at a loss as to what would be better but this poster doesn't do much for me. The white background, for one, seems wrong. Wouldn't a more sober color work better? I do like that Day-Lewis is in profile, though -- that works.



























The resolution is off as well. It seems way over sharpened and it's pixelated. Don't know why they'd go out with such a compromised image. Are they going for some old look to maintain verisimilitude? 

Don't know what good that level of rez does. It just looks bad. All in all this first poster probably does little to create anticipation for the movie.
