Trailer released for Oscar-tipped Manchester by the Sea

Manchester by the Sea made an appearance at the Sundance Film Festival, and instantly staked a claim for an Oscar. Its first trailer has just been released, so you can see what all the fuss is about.

Casey Affleck stars as a down-on-his-luck handyman who suddenly becomes the guardian of his nephew and has to up-and-move to do so. There are some amusing moments in the trailer for a film that looks like it could pack an emotional punch too.

The trailer also contains plenty of plaudits from those who attended its only public screening to date.
