Unlike some critics, the film becomes great when the story is told in parallelism. So what's the point of being a genius if you don't like the gifts from god, or you don't know how to do with them? Emily Watson portrays the utmost grief one could possibly experience in such situation.

With the flawless performance from Miss Watson here, Gwyneth Paltrow's Oscar win becomes more infuriating. So acting is exemplified when someone dumb walking around repeatedly and speaking Shakespearean with an American accent? Give me a break! The beautiful violin performance and heartbreaking ending will haunt you way longer than the fictional muse of Shakespeare.
