The director of photography was Sven Nykvist (sp?), who is justifiably
famous for his work with you-know-whom.  The photography in AoG was
very good, but on the whole I found the movie disappointing: 
	- it was very Hollywood
	- Jane Fonda came off as stident and unbelievable
	- the shrink-as-detective idea was never raised above
	  the readymade cliches (Those meetings with the judge- ugh!)
	- the climax was predictable (I killed the baby!), and having Meg
	  Tilly stigmata-ize then was this movie's equivalent to the
	  gratuitous car chase
	- the ending was weak

One * out of four. Very Missable.
