Preview: The Amazing Truth About Queen Raquela (2008)

• Poster: B

Review:

More symbolic than exceptional, the poster is an amazing situational experiment. Considering the subject of the film, using a men's room urinal as a throne for Queen Raquela is an inspired choice, but the rest of the poster seems a little vanilla for such an unusual story.

• Trailer: C+

Review:

For playing like a documentary, the film looks a tad too conventional. It uses the normal first-hand perspective and self-narration found in documentaries and while the subject is interesting, it doesn't seem like anything too terribly interesting.

Oscar Prospects:

Here! films is a long way from Oscar recognition, so niche content is about all we can expect from them for some time.

Release Date:
