Fine acting from Crowe, but the old man makeup made him look like Jason Robards. Connelly's character was tritely written. I wish I understood the significance of Charles being British, and why the little girl was there at all. Ed Harris looked ridiculous in his hat. The only nasty moment in the whole film was when the baby almost drowns in the bathtub. The rest of it was good, and fairly convincing.

7/10 ... the story has been sugared up to appeal to the most undemanding palate, but the whole thing is too "processed" for my taste.
