A film which lacks charm. A collection of one-dimensional characters. A script which appears to have been written by a committee. Cliches which were tired in the era of silent films. A ghastly, twee romance at the core of the picture.
It doesn't appear to be based on the book which it takes its name from.
Apparently Daniel Day-Lewis is the greatest actor of his generation, but with this dreadful sack of cliches for a script, Daniel's plumb out of luck.
An utter waste of time.
