This Dark Knight poster uses a darker tone. The intensity of light is very limited. The light only presence around Joker, Batman, and Two Face's faces. The light goes around their faces and reflects very minimal of light. We see this poster is dark because it overlaps what is light.
I find Two Face very interesting. He is holding his campaign buckle in a circle shape. The circle represents endlessness, warmth, and protection. This fits his roll as a city attorney which protect his people by fighting crime. Although later, he is all changed to someone else.
The hue in this poster is rather simple but good. Batman is in black overall. Black has a meaning of mystery and power that fits his roll in the movie. Joker has the color of red on his lip and the card that he is holding. The color of red Red is the color of fire and blood, so it is associated with energy, war,danger, strength and power. Red also represents love, but definitely not in Joker's case.
The color of red, white, and blue has the meaning of liberty and freedom. You can see this on the campaign buckle that Two Face is holding. It goes well with the shape of circle that has the meaning of protection. And on top of that, the circle represents endlessness that illustrates the point to that we all hope freedom and liberty can be everlasting.
