Great movie making, the acting and directing was first class, great kudos to Aidan Quinn, who I loved in another great "Crusoe". James Caan was fantastic and highly believable, though the beginning of the movie seemed a bit slow. There were many sentimental moments and many happy moments. Its not a new story concept, but it was masterfully accomplished. The ending is thrown about with a bit of surprise. If there would be a weakness to the storytelling, it would be that the continuity in Caan's character should not have ended. I don't want to spoil anything for anyone that wants to see a story equaling the moving power of "Legends of the Fall" and maybe even "Gone with the Wind". Okay, maybe I'm stretching it a bit, but see it, you'll enjoy it.
