Creation

Gorgeous cinematography highlights this factually inspired, slow-paced, overwrought, fascinating, tender, cameo-dotted (Jeremy Northam, Toby Jones, and Benedict Cumberbatch) film, which is based on the novel Annie's Box, that examines the process of naturalist Charles Darwin (Paul Bettany) as he wrote his controversial, famous, bestselling book on evolution "The Origin of the Species" while coping with a debilitating illness, a devoutly religious wife (Jennifer Connelly), and the death of their precocious daughter (Martha West) in Victorian England.
