What I love about this new poster for Luca Guadagnino’s I Am Love (Io sono l'amore) is not just its gorgeous typography, but also how it celebrates its lead actress, the incomparable Tilda Swinton. In the film, which premiered at Venice and Sundance and opens in the U.S. in June, Swinton plays a Russian woman married into a rich Milanese family who embarks upon a tempestuous affair with her son’s business partner.

I’ve worked with so many first-time filmmakers that I can’t even count them! I know that films that break new grounds take time to find funding. That’s all. And, I also know that it is possible to finds funding,
