This has allowed Milan-based graphic designer Matteo Civaschi to isolate the very essence of movie plots, eliminating the superfluous and focusing on the essential. For example, two white triangles perpendicular to a red field suffice to evoke \u003ci\u003eDracula\u003c\/i\u003e. But even complex or lengthy plots can be reduced to this language, as the inclusion of TV series from \u003ci\u003eGame of Thrones\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eBreaking Bad\u003c\/i\u003e attests. This book serves as a great gift for cinephiles, comedy fans and graphic designers alike.
