Advise & Consent (1962)

Advise & Consent (1962), the US one-sheet for Preminger's Washington drama about a contested Senate confirmation. A fist grips a black briefcase whose body is filled by the long cast list, and a white luggage tag dangling from it carries the Capitol dome and the title. The film's whole subject, deals carried in and out of the Senate, comes down to one piece of luggage, and the stars' names become the contents of the case. The red ground keeps it as loud as an election placard.
