Irrespective of their culture, people are storytellers who reflect on and shape their lives through narratives. Fludernik (2009) and Bal (2017) agree that a narrative is a text which conveys a subject and a possible world to an addressee who can be a reader, a viewer, or a listener. They add that a narrative can take various forms: text, image, sound, or a combination of some or all of them. A movie poster is a possible narrative world because it tells the movie's story through an extensive use of visuals. As a narrative form, a movie poster shares some features of narratives such as characterization, setting, and plot. These elements can be linguistically realized via a plethora of linguistic tools as those recurrent in Kress and van Leeuwen's (2006) visual semiotics model. The present paper examines a few posters for Oscar-winning movies in order to expose the visual linguistic representation of the elements constituting a narrative.
