  1. Excellent work. You show understanding of the way in which a film poster for this genre will feature the protagonist and you draw attention to the posture and gesture, and how they construct meaning.

The inclusion of social media shows awareness of current marketing tactics and distributors' awareness of this, as you heard on the FDA site.
