Preview: The Maid (2009)

Synopsis:

After serving faithfully for more than two decades, a maid goes to great, desperate lengths to preserve her job.

• Poster: C

Review:

The colors are atrocious and the rather depressed figure on the front of the poster fits the story, but still seems at odds with the film.

• Trailer: C

Review:

The concept is interesting enough, but the trailer doesn't yield enough sympathy for the maid, which may very well be what the film is about. Matter of fact, a few scenes even suggest the audience will hate her by the end of the film. Whatever the intention, the trailer isn't terribly envigorating or enticing.

Oscar Prospects:

None

Release Date:

• October 16, 2009
