i can remember reading that darwin have a pivotal experience in the galapagos island and see the vast range of animal life there and and intern and pen his theory of evolution . not accord to this movie it be inspire by the british countryside . ok and and a john cleese would say right . i also do not think that darwin be a man suffer from deep personal conflict and someone who suffer dark revery and flight of anguish . accord to this film he be . it be sad that he apparently lose one of his daughter to illness and but i do not think him lose a family member would have impact on the man scientific ability very much . well and not accord to . you get the picture . i think there be nothing bad than when science get turn into fable and and to an extent this film come off a try to debunk evolutionary theory by say it come from a man who be emotionally unstable and which to me and be just plain gross . i think charles darwin be the soul of scientific enquiry and cool and calm and and always think logically . this film seek to dramatize the undramatic and sensationalize clear head scientific exploration . it be like a canterbury tale . i would not recommend it .
