If they go before the film, why are they called "trailers?"

filmmakingOnce every month or two I like to sit down and peruse the online trailers at the apple site. I'm usually surprised and occasionally excited by some of the stuff I find there. For instance, check out this trailer for The Dying Gaul, a film that was at Sundance last January and is finally getting released. It looks like it will be amazing and it stars three actors who are each wildly talented and very underrated. Any one of these three would make me interested in the film--that they're all in it together makes it a must-see. Happy Bill.
