Final Movie poster

There is a fine line between viewer and spectator. The former is a more personalized reaction to an image while the latter is a more generalized expectation of a communal impression evoked by the video. It is difficult for me to separate the two in response to the movie poster I have selected.
    “Ace the Case” is not a movie I have seen, but the poster makes me want to because of the implied storyline. The perceived message of the visuals provide a more complex message. Your eye is first drawn to the centerpiece of Susan Sarandon standing proudly in front of a police car with her badge clearly showing. She exemplifies the strong woman, ready to kick butt and take names. Then you see the youngster with the animals. The fact that she is holding a rabbit and dog leash and has a mischievous smile on her face lets you know that this “cute” kid has a prominent role in solving the mystery.  Both play to differing stereotype of female characters. A male character is completely absent. Clearly these women are independent and can handle the case on their own.  And from their respective poses, the spectator is led to assume a team capable of protecting the neighborhood against evil.
    The “Ace the Case” poster ties together the images of the strong female adult with the cute female child. The spectator can interpret this as depicting the strength of women. As a viewer, it’s a movie I’d like to see.
