[edit] Summary

A promotional image for the film V for Vendetta.

[edit] Rationale of fair use for V for Vendetta (film)

It is believed that this image, V for Vendetta Vnorsefire.jpg, is subject to fair use in the article V for Vendetta (film) because:

This image is essential for illustrating the text next to which it appears, as it depicts the Norsefire regime, and illustrates some of the totalitarian imagery that contributes to its look. Illustrating this imagery, helps to negate the notion that the Norsefire regime was designed by the filmmakers as a parody of the American Administration, as the imagery shown is clearly not derive from that.
This image was released as part of set of images meant to promote the film. It is not a screenshot.
The image is of a lower resolution than the original promotional image.
This image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
The image is being used for information purposes only and does not detract from the original work, nor does it limit the copyright owner's rights to market or sell the work in any way.
No free or public domain images have been located for this film.
