McCarthy’s book “The Road”– Movie trailer/Poster ideas?!?

Question by Flightless Bird: McCarthy’s book “The Road”– Movie trailer/Poster ideas?!?
I’m doing a project for English on the book “The Road”. Fantastic book, but I have to say, I don’t even know where to start making a movie trailer or poster. What are the main themes of the book? Is there a website that can help me? Does anyone have any tips or tricks? Whats a good subtitle for the movie poster?!? Thanks

Damn, I literally just picked it up last night. Really good so far. As far as the image on the poster goes- I would do a rear view silhouette of a father and son (in the foreground) walking down a really stark, deserted road that stretches all the way to the horizon. Almost apocalyptic style.

Wish I could be of more help but I’m only a few pages in.

Have you read “No Country for Old Men” yet? Better than the movie. Oh, and they’re making a movie of “The Road” too.
