By itself, the poster isn't terribly interesting. Paired with a familiarity of the trailer, it takes on another meaning.
This looks like another terrific turn from Michelle Williams who seems to have a film where her characters gets a world of shit thrown at her and comes out dejected in the end. It may be a bit depressing, but this trailer makes it look at least interesting.
Williams might be a contender, but this isn't going to be her year. There are too many other indie actresses that are vying for prizes and I'm afraid Williams will probably get left out.
A simple story told with great passion and emotion by an actress (Michelle Williams) at the top of her game.
