That's still odd as that's when movies like BBM opened nationwide, in the first week of January. Of course, they'd already had their premiere in the coastal cities in December to make it to the Oscars. Then again, did they think a movie about a serial killer isn't exactly the perfect holiday movie? Oh well, they put up Christmas tree decorations in some rather grim films, Die Hard, to let you know it's still December.
There was alot of buzz about ALL THE KING'S MEN, but that got pushed back to this year. I was interested because it was a remake of a movie that already won best picture. How often does that happen, a remake of a film that's already received top awards. A glut of political films last December, maybe they thought better to wait.
