W.E. coming soon

With incredible reviews of Madonna's second film as a director that range from the "fatally mishandled" to being "a bold and confident story". STUDIOCANAL has now set a release date for the film. That being January 20, 2012

We haven't been sent a UK trailer for the film so I've had to go hunting around youTube. This not being the easiest thing to do with the title of the film! The below trailer seems to be a teaser trailer.

W.E. is a beautifully crafted, passionate tale about the search for true love in the modern world, viewed through the prism of one of history's most fabled romances. The year is 1998, and Manhattan is abuzz with anticipation about the upcoming auction of the estate of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. But the auction is far more than a diversion for Wally Winthrop (Abbie Cornish), a transplanted Southerner trapped in an unhappy and abusive marriage. Transfixed by the exquisite artefacts of the Windsors' lives, Wally becomes obsessed with the love story of Wallis Simpson (Andrea Riseborough), the chic, charismatic American who captured the heart of King Edward VIII (James D'Arcy). As she learns more about the sacrifices Wallis made in choosing to be with Edward, Wally finds the courage to follow her own heart and create her own happiness.

W.E. is abdicating into UK cinemas January 20, 2012
