Mother and Child

I don't go to movies at movie theaters, so it is in a way understandable that a movie will be released and I will not have heard of it.
But a movie with Naomi Watts, Annette Bening, Samuel L. Jackson, Jimmy Smits, and more! And it passed me by?!
'Mother and Child' is an utterly lovely piece of work. And I am really impressed with Annette Bening's willingness to be so utterly deglamourized.
I recommend the movie highly.
UPDATE: Apparently Rodrigo Garcia, the director, is a son of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. I made it to the end of the son's movie, and never have with Dad's novels. Still, this is clear proof genes matter.
