Yeah I've been the lonely voice in the wilderness mentioning this movie now and then. The trailer looks really good, not all stiff and formal like a merchant ivory thing, it looks alive. If it gets great reviews, I think it has a chance of getting an actor nod or two, and maybe is in the running for things like adapted screenplay and cinematography.
If it gets a truly great reaction, I think the year is weak enough that it really has the potential to sneak in as a BP contender, but that's pretty out there. I coould however see Edward Norton getting a nomination. Maaybe Naomi Watts, but the Best Actress category is pretty packed this year.
Either way, the trailer really is growing on me every time I see it, especially once I was able to get past of the stink of The Last Samurai the music gave me.
