INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS (2009) : ALTERNATE MOVIE POSTER (2016)

Quentin Tarantino's fifth studio film, Inglourious Basterds, follows two intertwining stories. Brad Pitt's Lt. Aldo Raine and his pack of Jewish American soldiers shoot, scalp, and lie their way through World War II as they hunt down Nazi officers and the big man himself, Hitler. On the other hand, Shosanna, a Jewish woman now in hiding as a French theatre owner Emmanuelle, is thrown into the mix through an admirer and a man they call the "Jew Hunter".

This alternate film poster features Shosanna, played by Mélanie Laurent.
