Very engaging, though the end disappoints.
John Hurt was a good choice for his role.
Ed Harris was not.
Far too hale and hearty to play the role of a tired, frail old man who wanders his kitchen in his robe, no longer bothering to shave regularly, looking to surrender his position to a young successor.
Harris could be in his eighties, for all I know, but he still looks like a very fit fellow in his fifties, at most.
I have no idea why, but the flick had something of the look of an old TV show on videotape.
That, too, was odd.
