Movie: Creation

We saw Creation at the Michigan Theater on Tuesday night. The movie details Charles Darwin's struggles in writing The Origin of Species.

Creation was better than I expected and, I would say, better than the NY Times review suggests. I was expecting a triumphalist manifesto, and received, as the NYT mocks, a melodrama instead. What I do not know is how historically accurate it is; a Darwin biography will therefore be added to the Amazon cart.

Recommended.
