Am I the only one that thought ...


Mild spoilers:

Am I the only one that thought that there were 3 actors playing Henry?

I thought there was Henry at 6 (Alex Ferris), Eric Bana playing the adult Henry, then some other actor playing the young man Henry in the middle.

Now I see there was just the two, I'm thinking what a great job they did making Bana look younger and then older (graying hair, always with the stubble, but more).

I know Bana from other films, so it's not like he was new to me. In fact, when I first saw young man Henry at the car accident scene when Henry at 6 first travelled, I thought "who is this guy?"

No complaints here, I just thought they did a great job. Also, McAdams in the meadow as an 18 year old Clare looked pretty good.

PS (because I don't want to reply to those other threads with negative titles):
-- Eric Bana was a perfect casting choice.
-- People finding this film creepy are themselves creepy.
-- I give them film an honest score of 8/10.

Brevity is the soul of wit.
