'Nothing But The Truth' Trailer

Nothing But The Truth looks like one of those movies that should have a starrier cast, given its subject matter and its general air of class. It looks a bit like The Insider (Michael Mann's most underrated movie) but its full of B-list talent that would suggest that the script isn't as impressive as the trailer or maybe the director and producer couldn't attract A-list talent. But considering that Rod Lurie's last foray into this territory with The Contender garnered Oscar nominations for its principle cast, it seems like the script must be the culprit.

Unless its hidden answer C and the material is so edgy and progressive that the money-men didn't think it would find a big audience, keeping their hands tight on the purse strings and not paying up for A-listers. Or maybe hidden answer D, Rod Lurie is a commie who is on a secret Hollywood blacklist along with Terence Mallick and Michael Cimino. Our money's on the script though.
