A trailer has been released for the dramedy The Playroom.  The film takes place in the 1975, and centers on a group of kids seeing the drama created by their parents.  The advertising is practically begging to get the movie some credibility by overloading on blurbs to the point where one of the quotes is along the lines of “this is the stuff Oscar clips are made from.”  It would be the first Oscar movie without any buzz whatsoever.  I love star John Hawkes, but he does his share of forgettable indies, and this looks like one of them.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer, and maybe you’ll feel differently.  The film also stars Molly Parker, Cody Linley, Lydia MacKay, and Olivia Harris.  The Playroom hits theaters, DVD, and VOD on February 8th (you know, like all potential Oscar contenders).
