    Victorian dilemma

    This film is a mix of scientific discovery and personal tradgedy and is imbued with victorian views and principles! It explores Darwins dilemma in that publishing his theory he goes against God and his wife a devout Christian! It is almost as though he is being punished in his personal life for his beliefs! A must see film if a little long and with too many agonised close ups of Darwins face for my liking!Fine acting throughout and wonderful photography.
