Sweet, Sentimental, Modernized Journey Through Silas Marner.
This is about the best Steve Martin movie I've seen. That, for me, is saying a lot, since I love all his movies.
Steve Martin plays a divorced hermetic carpenter who discovers a motherless baby on his doorstep and adopts her.
The conflict comes when her millionaire father, denied a lawful child by his legal wife, seeks to take possession of the child he sired by a drug-hazed prostitute; Martin's little girl.
Very good drama, with classic Martin style, and without smarm.
Excellent movie.
It rates an 8.8/10 from...
