With an all-star cast including Carey
Mulligan, Helena Bonham Carter, Brendan Gleeson, Anne-Marie Duff, Ben Whishaw
and Meryl Streep as Emmeline Pankhurst, Suffragette is the powerful and
thrilling first film about the remarkable untold story of the real foot
soldiers of the Suffragette movement. These women were not primarily from the
genteel educated classes, they were working women who had seen peaceful protest
achieve nothing. Radicalised and turning to violence as the only route to
change, they were willing to lose everything in their fight for equality -
their jobs, their homes, their children and their lives. Maud (played by Carey
Mulligan) was one such foot soldier. The story of her fight for dignity is as
gripping and visceral as any thriller; it is also both heart-breaking and
inspirational

The main page has moving scenes from the movie which presents woman as proud and strong. This interaction with the audience is an example of pull marketing where the audience is free to explore whatever they want. The website also uses a colour theme that's also used on the posters, the maps for example use the synergistic purple which is something the audience can instantly associate with the movie.

Posters
Posters are an
good way of communicating with the target audience as they can easily reach
quite a large number of people. Posters give the audience a visual idea of what
the movie may be about and the potential characters/themes in it. I have
personally seen this Suffragette poster on various buses and adshells and I
think that its very eye-catching and stands out due to the use of bright colours.
Trailer
Film trailers are
intended to get audiences excited about seeing a film at the cinema.
However, trailers are also a form of introducing the storyline, they can
establish the genre, introduce characters and setting as well as set the plot
and key themes.

Over a hundred
feminist protesters jumped the barriers onto the red carpet at the premiere of
Suffragette in Leicester Square.
Activists from Sisters Uncut have attended the red carpet premiere to campaign
against domestic violence saying that they want to bring attention to domestic
violence services and declared “the battle isn’t over yet”.
Helen Bonham
Carter said: “I’m glad our film has done something. That’s exactly what it’s there
for,” adding that the protest was the “perfect” response to the film.
Reviews
“Carey Mulligan
is destined for a Best Actress nomination at next year’s Academy for her gut
wrenching portrayal of a mother who loses everything she holds dear because
she refuses to walk in a man’s shadow.”
02/10/15: Carey Mulligan took top honours for
Suffragette at the first major ceremony of the film awards season. Mulligan was
named best actress at the 19th annual Hollywood Film Awards in Beverly Hills for her role as Maud, a laundry
worker who joins the fight for women’s votes.
