Preview: Potiche (2011)

Synopsis:

• Poster: B-

Review:

The poster has a '70s/'90s flair that draws the eye. Too much text may give people something to read, but might turn others away.

• Trailer: B

Review:

Catherine Deneuve looks like she's having a hell of a lot of fun. On top of that, Francois Ozon is a very interesting director. Swimming Pool and 8 Women are both wonderful little trifles, so this could very well follow that path.

Oscar Prospects:

Ozon hasn't done very well with the Academy. And being a comedy, they are not likely to change its tune this time around.

Release Date:
