Just found this. Not by Rodchenko, but by (new to me) fellow constructivists Vladimir and Georgii Stenberg. A movie poster from 1927. Isn't this great?

Let’s face it. Rodchenko work is politically charged.

You can see his graphic design approach here as well. The man was not afraid to tilt that camera.
