: : : One month (day of the month wise, at it is now Oct. 12) until Dogma.
: : less than 2 weeks until the Red Bank premiere :). 14 days, to be anal.
Even for the anal, there exists no difference between the terms "2 weeks" and the term "14 days". They mean EXACTLY the same thing.
: ACTUALLY: If you want to be correct about the PREMIERE, it already happened Oct. 4th in NYC.
Indeed.
:SO, the film has technically ALREADY been released, albeit to extremely select theathers (or theather).
No, that's not true. If you wanted to follow that logic, it was "released" to a screening room for people at Lion's Gate. It was "released" to various film fests. It was "released" to... Forget it. No, release definitely is understood by all to be when the film is released to the general public for general viewing.
