Watch: Everybody Gets An Accent In Trailer For Hilary Swank's Oscar Bait 'Conviction'

Even though she's already nabbed two Oscars, it seems that Hilary Swank's mantle has room for more as following last year's disastrous prestige project "Amelia," she has yet another awards season baiting film waiting in the wings with "Conviction." The based-on-a-true-story film is an "Erin Brokovich"-esque tale about a woman who goes to law school to earn her stripes so she can set her wrongfully convicted brother free.

The trailer has arrived for the film and the title, which was recently changed from "Betty Anne Waters" to "Conviction," seems to be the least of the film's problems. Ticking off every cliche of the stereotype of the Oscar film, no actor walks away from this film without an accent or affectation of some kind. And it's really a shame because the cast of Swank, Sam Rockwell, Melissa Leo and Juliette Lewis is pretty solid (oh, and there's Minnie Driver!) but when the trailer got the point where Swank's characters asks her kids if they would do the same thing for each other any hope for this went out the window.

"Conviction" will land in theaters on October 15th.
