I recorded this a few days ago and only got round to watching it today. I really enjoyed it - great acting from Hopkins as usual, nice use of music and beautiful cinematography. Anybody else see it?

I saw it years ago. When John Hurt tried to show Anthony Hopkins that he could speak i nearly wept it was so affecting.

Aye, great film! It even managed to use Barbers 'adagio for strings' six years before Platoon picked up on it.

I saw it for the first time the other day, and my god it was brilliant!
Had me in tears in parts.

Once especially potent teargasser of a scene was when Hopkins brought him into his house.
