Sadly, it was right on the money - these days they get a great idea for a trailer first. Then they spin it out to try and make a movie out of it. Then they hire Tom Cruise to "act" in it.
Could you imagine the trailer for "How Green Was My Valley" if it WAS made today ? - Cinema goers would be put to sleep before the feature even came on :~)Cheers
