Got around to watching this the other day, and watched again tonight.

I'm just saying ..... maybe it's just me .... but I thought Dakota Fanning was more worthy of an Oscar nomination than most of what I saw from that movie season's offerings. For me, when an actor/actress has you seeing the character and not the one portraying it, that is a good job of acting, and I felt Dakota accomplished that in this movie, regardless of the movie itself being praiseworthy.

I did like the premise of the movie, tho', and it was obviously ended with the potential for a sequel.
