18 Days to U23D!

I've been avidly reading the reviews of U23D from America, heard first -hand reports from friends, and they have been, without exception, excellent. This has whetted my appetite even more for the film, but why or why does Europe have to wait an extra month to see it??? Very frustrating and I've heard no explanation as to why either. Ahh well, they say good things are worth waiting for - 18 more days and we'll see if that's true!
