Trailer for David O. Russell's 'Silver Linings Playbook'

Seems an odd choice for this director but, then, when you think about it, he probably brings a familiarity with the material other directors couldn't match.

Hard to tell anything, really, from this trailer. Could go either way. Love De Niro, though.

Thing is, though, (you know) flick opens Nov. 21, days before the annual family ordeal of Turkey Day, so not too many people are going to want to see a movie about a messed up family trying to cope with it all.

Just saying...they might want to bump it one way or the other.
