Since it seems to deal with the credit crunch it looks like a low budget movie. The main reason is because Kevin Costner doesn't wear a hair piece.

[for petes sake]

TV producer writes/directs to make a big important statement about the times.  Ouch. 

Deakins is lensing this for some reason.

That trailer looks like a youtube video made by some over-zealous fan.  The kind you see and go, "Why did somebody make this?" Although at least theres no low quality stills used in it.

I like the trailer's oddness. I like how I have no idea what the story will be like. I like it because it's a good reminder that trailers matter for jack shit. Other trailers give you ideas of how their stories will be, but that's only based on what advertisers want you to take away. No trailer deserves any real consideration, but that doesn't stop this board from commenting on them way too much.

This year's Crash

Beautifully acted but boringly sad. Not worth saying all that much more. I know that sounds harsh but you guys are much worse about lesser known films.
