"The Way Back" Is.... Well, It's Back!

Remember the pang of sadness that struck Telluride a month ago when news broke out that Newmarket Films had acquired Peter Weir's epic, The Way Back, for a January release? Well general audiences probably won't get to see it until then, but it looks like Weir and the gang have been able to push through a one-week limited release qualifying run for the film. That means that if everything goes smoothly, it may very well make the cut for the Best Picture race. I'm not going to say anything for sure until I absolutely know it for sure, but this is a very exciting possibility that I'd like to see happen. What do you think of this news? Did the reviews out of Telluride strike you as meriting a chance at the top prize?
