Alexa in BAFTA, Curio, Oscars (14), movie posters

Alexa here. It's that time of year, where artists and designers take a crack at creating alternative posters for the Oscar nominated films. As they do every year the BAFTAs commissioned posters for their nominated films; the Academy is at least featuring movie Valentines from illustrator Nan Lawson on its site but I wish they'd feature some alternative nominee posters too (grumble grumble).  To fill the void, here are some favorite designs I've spied floating around...

And due to a depressing lack of Selma designs (that film just can't catch a break), I've filled the void with my favorite design for Foxcatcher. Happy Oscars everyone!
