In 1999, Mike Leigh's 'Topsy Turvy' was released just before Christmas. Maybe you can blame it on Y2K (remember that?), but it vanished within a few weeks, grossing only about $6M in the US.
This is a great movie! It is what a historical piece should be. It may be a little out of today's normal geek range, but if you were around in 1882, Gilbert & Sullivan is what you would be listening to. Give it a chance and rent the DVD.
