I wish I’d seen this with no idea what kind of movie it was. Nearly half the movie is not what you’d expect from the marketing. One thing I did have going for me: I missed some really obvious things in the trailer.

There’s a musical number in the middle that easily could have slid off the rails (and for about a half second I thought it was going to) but it ends up being fantastic.

I started today’s poster thinking I’d have to just recreate the title, so I did that. The I realized that doing it right would mean hand drawing nearly every letter on the poster. So I did it wrong. Enjoy!
