Well-meaning but hopeless treatment of the agony endured by Charles Darwin before writing and publishing his monumental work. Bettany spent two hours angst-ing, whimpering, mewling, wringing his hands, caving in to the demands of his wife and minister... It may all have been true but who wants to follow someone like this around for two hours? After ten minutes I wanted to slap him in the face and tell him to develop a backbone.
Nice-looking production but very irritating to experience.
