Has anybody heard anything about this film? Does the lack of pre-release publicity indicate a lack of studio faith in the project?
I haven't heard much other than seeing the extended 6-minute preview, but I adore the book and am super excited to see the movie. I'm not totally sure it's going to work, but I'll be there anyway.
Also, I've seen (well, fast-forwarded through) a lot of regular previews for the movie on prime-time TV, so they're giving it a healthy marketing campaign.
