Yes, seems better to me too.  The girl's head looks a tad stretched due to 
volume anamorphosis--there are a few other signs of this effect as well.  Would 
consider  a modest cylindrical correction
which is less accurate than a spherical correction but leads to less linear 
distortion as there are straight lines in the shot as well.  One can't have 
perfectly straight lines and correct the anamorphosis, unfortunately.
My choice would be normocephalic  subjects with slightly skewed lines.

How about normocephalic withOUT skewed lines?

My point was not there - I'm not thinking in term of "laterality" but in term 
of depth, which is another dimension. I was certain you had targeted the cobbler whatever 
the means, AF or manual.
What I mean is that for this particular shot it would have been more beneficial 
to have the character on left sharper and less the car in the background. Front 
focusing a bit would have helped.
Now of course you can still defocus/blur-unsharpen the car in post.

Like the above? :-)
