close-up portrait composition — oversized title, multi-line title, serif type

A retro crime movie poster in bold graphic design splits the frame into a triptych of colored face strips on the left and a black field with an upturned face on the right. The left half holds three tall vertical strips with rounded tops, separated by thin black gaps: from left to right a mustard-yellow strip, a sky-blue strip, and a crimson-red strip, each carrying a duotone close-up crop of the same shouting man's face, his open mouth and contorted features repeating across the three color fields. The strips run from the top edge to the bottom edge, their rounded tops aligned just below the top margin. The right half is a solid black field. In its upper portion, an older man's face in three-quarter view tilts upward and to the left, his silver-gray hair, deep forehead lines, and strong nose modeled in warm photographic tones against a small patch of cream background visible behind his head in the upper-right corner. He wears a dark suit with a white shirt collar just visible at the bottom of his chin. His expression is grim and defiant, eyes narrowed against a hard light from above. Across the lower third of the black field, the word "TITLE" appears in two lines of huge bold coral-red sans-serif capitals, left-aligned, the letterforms clean and geometric with tight line spacing, occupying nearly the full width of the right half. The lighting is hard and high-contrast: a strong top light rakes across the older man's face leaving deep shadows under the brow and cheekbones, while the three colored strips are rendered flat like screen prints with no modeled light. The color palette slams flat mustard yellow, sky blue, and crimson against solid black and cream, with the coral-red title as the single warm accent on the dark field. The overall composition pits the rhythmic triple-strip repetition on the left against the stark black void and monumental upturned face on the right, in a hard-edged retro screen-print style that feels aggressive, tense, and unmistakably noir.
