Is that Neve on the cover/poster with the hand across her mouth?


Doesn't look like her to me.

I always thought it was Drew Barrymore.

I googled it there and yeah it's Drew.

Ah, okay. Thanks πŸ‘

No problem, champ.

After some googling I can across this image supposedly detailing how they made the poster from a photoshoot Drew done. Not sure if it's how the actually made it, but you can see the facial appearance lines up.

Here's a promo still she did for Scream (1996), doing a different shocked pose.

They also used another image of Drew for early VHS covers.

That's really interesting. On that first link of the six shots you can see on the final image (with the hand added) they made her top lip a little fuller. Thanks again! πŸ‘

The audience was supposed to believe that Drew Barrymore had the lead role in the 90's when it came out.

How long was Drew's role?? Roughly 5 minutes??

The opening sequence with the final shot of Casey ends at 13:12 in the uncut version and 12:55 in the R-rated.

Yes, I remember.
