While we dive deep into Hollywood’s poster offerings each month, looking at the best and worst studio-produced one-sheets, it’s time to put our money where our mouth is. At The Film Stage, we believe that if some care is taken, a poster can be a distinct creation onto itself to be observed and admired. Today is the return of our monthly feature, Alternate Art, in which the talented designer Midnight Marauder creates an original, alternate poster for one of the month’s releases.

This month is for Bennett Miller‘s Foxcatcher which hits theaters today and follows the harrowing true relationship between Steve Carell‘s schizophrenic John du Pont and Olympic wrestler Mark Schultz (Channing Tatum). This is reflected in the art below, which takes on a crude, raw style inspired by French 1970’s illustrations. Check it out below and one can read our review, interviews with the cast, and more here.
