The Painted Veil

This film had a lot working against it - not least of which Ed Norton and Liev Schrieber - but it turns out I liked it quite a bit. Well-paced, possibly predictable but a really affecting 'love' story nonetheless. Naomi Watts turned in her usual luminous performance full self-revelation (she does have the eyes for showing moments of sudden clarity).

What the heck. Good movie.
