I just watched it. It was okay. Emily Watson was pretty good, but the rest of the cast was just so-so. However, it did motivate me to do a little research on the country of Swaziland. It has the lowest life expectancy on the planet at 32.6 years and is expected to drop to 29 in 4 years due to AIDS.

From IMDB trivia:
Rachel Weisz, Toni Collette, 'Meg Ryan' and Emmanuelle Béart all turned down roles.

Too bad, because it probably would have been a lot better.

I saw it. Pretty good movie. If Meg Ryan had been in it, I would have passed.
