* TookTheBadFilmSeriously: The film was considered by many to be a catastrophe, but Creator/DanielDayLewis delved into his character just as much as he has in any other character he's ever played. Many critics wondered if it would hurt his mostly unblemished career at all. He's seconded by Creator/MarionCotillard, who director Creator/RobMarshall viewed as the real star of the film. Her powerful, emotional performance of the MovieBonusSong "Take It All" nearly redeemed the film for some.
