Analysing Romantic Comedy Posters - 'Anyone But You'

The next romantic comedy poster I will be identifying the conventions of is for 'Anyone But You'.

  • Dominant central image of the main protagonists that fall in love
  • Name of film - 'Anyone But You' - hints to the negative side of relationships
  • Tagline - 'they only look like the perfect couple', which implies that they don't act like a perfect couple, probably because of their contradicting personalities which is a common theme in romantic comedies
  • Names of stars - they have appeared in romantic comedies before e.g., Glen Powell has starred in 'Set it Up'
  • High key lighting is most commonly used in romantic comedies
  • Fancy attire - linked with romantic comedies and dating
  • Romantic setting - famous landmarks are typical settings for romantic comedies
  • Romantic props - champagne which is linked to fancy dates, which is a common aspect of romantic comedies
