Watching In The Electric Mist last week, we became very interested in the phenomenon of films with big-name actors which inexplicably disappear into the cavern known as 'straight to DVD'. Such appears to be the fate that awaits The Greatest, having only scored a very limited run in the US and having thus far failed to secure distribution in the UK. The big name casualties here look set to be Pierce Brosnan, Susan Sarandon and Carey Mulligan (as well as Johnny Simmons, featured in this article earlier in the week) in a tale that looks slightly schmaltzy but which surely has enough star power and emotional oomph to afford it a touch more publicity than it received. Be sure to look out for it in all good bargain bins at some point soon.
Trailer Of The Week is a regular Film Intel feature which picks a different tasty trailer of delectable goodness every week and presents it on Sunday for your viewing pleasure. Sometimes old, sometimes new, sometimes major, sometimes independent, sometimes brilliant, sometimes a load of old bobbins: always guaranteed to entertain. If you want to make a suggestion for Trailer Of The Week, see the contact us page.
