    Had Darwin observed the wishes of his wife Emma, he would never have published it, and credit for Natural Selection might have gone to Alfred Russell Wallace or others.http://news.google.ca/news?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENCA262&q=Creation,%202009%20movie,%20review&lr=&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wn

    "Amiel’s core challenge here is to make audiences believe their story: parents to 10 children, eminent Victorians with an unusual devotion to their brood; the author of a book which changed the world."http://www.screendaily.com/festivals/toronto/gala-presentations/creation/5005046.article
