• Poster: B+

Review:

It's a rather pretty poster and it works towards the films ideas.

• Trailer: B-

Review:

The film looks like quite a bit of traditional sermonizing. It has solid actors in it, but the premise looks so wholesome and unwaveringly banal that it may not succeed outside of DVD.

Oscar Prospects:

Duvall hasn't been courting Oscar for some time and the film just seems to mainstream to appeal to the Oscars.

Release Date:

• September 2, 2011
