Here is a side-by-side comparison of the movie poster and the original Broadway poster. The photo recreates the iconic Émile Bayard's etching. It's interesting to note the art director chose  NOT to go with the “nude” off the right shoulder look of the original French illustrator.  The movie poster features the prominent  face of beautiful Isabelle Allen as young Cosette in the upcoming movie version of Les Misérables. Little Issy's character is known for her haunting solo Castle in the Cloud.
