Quicktime 4 compressor missing?

I recently tried to view a Quicktime trailer for the upcoming movie "The Patriot."
http://www.thepatriot.com/
Quicktime 4.1 complains that I don't have the necessary compressor to play the movie, so I, of course, get sound with no video when I try and play it.
Any ideas?

Is it an AVI file? If so, I think what happens is that people sometimes create them with the latest video codec(?), before it is made cross platform, to be used with quicktime.

It would make sense if it was an AVI, but it's a QuickTime movie. Very strange...

Well, QuickTime can use different codecs as well. I have Sorensen codec installed and it wasn't part of Quicktime 3.x when I got it (It may be now). Look under information on the movie and see what format it is.

The video format for the movie is Intel Indeo Video 4.4. I have Indeo Video 5 installed on my machine. There is a page on Intel's website with a few sample Quicktime movies encoded with Indeo 5, and I can't get video on those either- only sound.
