Very true. You'd think that after a Golden Globe win for Best Dramatic Picture that it would be a signal to the studio to begin a strong campaign for it, yet Babel's promoters seem to not be pushing it very much. You'd think they'd have more faith in it, which could be a good indicator that there won't be a Departed/ Babel split where Little Miss Sunshine could sneak in.
