This poster for the film Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy creates a sense of mystery and secrecy. The faded background numbers and characters who avoid eye contact heighten the ambiguity. The main character stands out in a suit, implying authority but also suspicion. Multiple other characters look intently at something unknown, raising questions about their roles. The color scheme uses red, white and blue strategically to draw attention to the title and main character amid the confusing images and blue backdrop.
