Default poster for Scent of a Woman has obvious compositing error

https://watch.plex.tv/movie/scent-of-a-woman

Why are Al Pacino and Chris O’Donnell standing on top of Al Pacino’s shoulder? but also not? Why is the selection on the large Pacino so rough? Why was no attempt made to match the lighting between the big Pacino and the walking guys or between the walking guys and the background? What’s up with the tree branches not being attached to any trees?

It looks like what happened here is that three different elements were composited together, but not very well.

I’ve already fixed this on my Plex server but I figured I’d report it. Pacino won the Best Actor Oscar for his performance in this film, it’s kind of a big deal film that I would expect a lot of sets of eyes take a look at, so I figured some Plex employees might want to dig into it and try to improve the metadata quality.

The description on this film is also very poorly written. The weirdly familiar language (“Frank” “Charlie” when the characters have full names) is tonally weird. The semicolon separating the two clauses in the second sentence doesn’t scan. There’s improper tense accord in the final sentence. So it’d probably be worthwhile to spend a little time trying to improve this as well.
