Anne Hathaway is awesome. The film might be ok, too.

Trailer
Rating: B+
Commentary: This was the face of the musical from its opening on Broadway through much of its run. It’s one of the most iconic images in Broadway history, so it makes perfect sense to use it for the film. 		Rating: A
Commentary: While it doesn’t tell us if the whole movie’s going to be very good, Anne Hathaway delivers a knock-out vocal performance in the trailer, which only makes me want to see it.

Oscar Chances: This will be one of the favorites going into Oscar season, but will need strong support from critics to muster Oscar’s patience with the genre. Look for it to compete in several categories with nominations almost assured in Art Direction, Costume Design, Makeup and Sound Mixing along with another handful of techs and probably even a few above-the-line categories, like Hathaway in Supporting Actress.
