They seem to be aiming for a very small, perfunctory theatrical release targeting the arthouse and Granny crowd before sending it off to video. They make it look like a BBC television movie.

Given the pedigree and talent involved, I expected a trailer that would support a prestige theatrical release on the order of "King\’s Speech" and "Theory of Everything".

That\’s not this.
