Just come across this myself but I’m not sure how to feel about it. A new movie about the life of Darwin is due for release in Ireland on 25 Sep and stars David Bettany playing the main man himself! He is a pretty solid actor and a life long fan of the big D man – apparently.
My problems are:
1. The name - Creation! I may be paranoid but in conjures up ID and creationist images
2. The movie is being released (?) by Damaris Media. On their site promoting the movie there is a line which states "In association with Icon, Damaris are providing the following resources to help churches, schools and community groups make the most of this movie when it is released on September 25th." This may be a good thing, trying to soften up the churches and schools or may be just pandering to them?
So am I right to be sceptical about this or am I just a bit thick. Your thoughts please!?
