“murder can sometimes smell like honeysuckle”

Part of a series of reimagined film noir posters focusing on an object central to the story rather than on any human characters. For Double Indemnity I illustrated (using only geometric shapes) the dictaphone on which Walter Neff records his confession. Classic film noir movies were shot in black and white, however I used a dark, moody color palette to give a modern edge, and to further emphisize the suspense of these films. I had some fun with the symbols used to seperate the sub-genres: here a sideways heart represents the love affair gone wrong between Walter and Phyllis.
