The art of a good trailer is still elusive to many folks. Sometimes they suffer from hyper-editing, sometimes they give too much away, sometimes they're just boring. Someone recently asked me why I bother watching them. Aside from, you know, the fact that it's my job, I watch trailers because I'm fascinated by them. I love the idea of trying to grab an audience by cramming a two hour film into 120 critical seconds. I'm interested in the newness of them and the anticipation that they create. And I'm also interested in them when they fail utterly.
My point is this: I have very little interest in Exodus Fall. It looks like serviceable family fare that's just edgy enough to avoid being shmaltzy, but still is kind of bland overall. It stars Jesse James, Adrien Finkel, and Devon Graye as three kids who flee from their abusive mother (Roseanna Arquette, who...

Set in the ’70s in a small Texan town, the film centers on three siblings trying to cope with the loss of their father and their mother’s resulting breakdown. Kenneth (Jesse James), Charlotte (Adrien Finkel) and Dana (Devon Graye) are three teens who weasel into your heart immediately with their wholesome, genuine kindness and full personalities.
