Wonderful film

Fantastic film, though I am a small investor! The cinematography is world class. The acting is good (with cate murino's brilliant), though I have heard that jack houstin's acting was not quite strong enough for a Hemmingway male. Some thought needs to go into it when you watch it though, as above, the cinematography is sufficient for you to enjoy it.
