The Railway Man - Official® Trailer 2 [HD]

This is the official second trailer for The Railway Man, released on January 9th, 2014. It can draw people to the film because it is close to the film's release date in the UK (The Railway Man will be released tomorrow), and therefore will remind people that the film is still out there.

Furthermore, it is using other clips from the film, and therefore might give people a better picture of what to expect.

ODEON - The Railway Man

 

The following photographs were all found on Friday, 10th January 2014 (the day of The Railway Man's theatrical release in the UK), and come from ODEON Cinemas website.

 

The first of these is of the film's synopsis. It is brief and to the point, not giving too much away and inviting the audience to watch the film so that they can find out for themselves what happens. There are link buttons below which are incredibly user-friendly, allowing users to easily book tickets, receive email notifications, etc.



 

 

 

The following three photographs are of exclusive production stills on a slideshow. Since they incorporate different characters and points in time,  they might imply to prospective audiences that the film is multi-layered and therefore might intrigue people into going to see the film, in order to find out what it is exactly about.



 

 

 

 

 



The Daily Express

The following two photographs, both of which were taken on Saturday, 28th December 2013, are of the Daily Express (Saturday, 28th December 2013 issue). The front-page is dedicated to The Railway Man,  specifically Colin Firth.

This suggests that for The Railway Man,  the star appeal of Colin Firth plays an important role in promoting the film. The fact that Colin Firth is pictured alongside his wife, and that there are several people in the background, suggests that the film has a lot of support behind it, which might incentivise people to come and see the film. Furthermore, many businesses, such as corner shops stock the Daily Express, so their coverage of The Railway Man  will certainly be far-reaching.

Bus Poster - The Railway Man

This was taken on Thursday, 19th December 2013. It is a photograph of a bus poster for The Railway Man. Since the bus is moving all the time, it therefore follows that many people from different parts of London (or, at the very least, the places within the bus' route) will become aware of the film.
