Obviously, no one wants to be dismissive of a trailer for a film that features both Annette Bening and Jodie Foster but I have to admit that, when I first watched the trailer for Nyad, it almost felt like a parody of what would have been automatic Oscar bait in 2010.  I mean, it’s a true story and Bening and Foster are almost always both great and I sure as heck couldn’t swim all the way from Florida to Cuba but …. well, we’ll see!  Nyad will play in theaters starting on October 20th and is schedule to stream on Netflix in November!

Here’s the trailer!
