Plot: Eliza Naumann has no reason to believe she is anything but ordinary. Her father Saul, a beloved university professor, dotes on her talented elder brother Aaron. Her scientist mother, Miriam, seems con...( read more  )sumed by her career. When a spelling bee threatens to reaffirm her mediocrity, Eliza amazes everyone: she wins. Her newfound gift garners an invitation not only to the national competition, but an entrée into the world of words and Jewish mysticism that have so long captivated her father's imagination. But Eliza's unexpected success hurls the Naumann family dynamic into a tailspin, long-held secrets emerge and she is forced to depend upon her own divination to hold the family together.

  I don't know why this movie was scored so low. This movie is beautiful and moving. It was very different from what I expected.

  Even though it really bugged me that Richard Geere was cast in the role of a spiritually insensitive intellectual, I found this film to be charming and appealing. I enjoyed Juliette Binoche's performance, and Max Minghella was quite believable as the impressionable young idealist.

  the girl is very intelligent here but she also knows when to sacrifice her talents for her family's sake.

  whoaa....this is the weirdest movie i've seen. ABSOLUTELY NO POINT. nuff' said!
  Richard Gere was ok. But he was all obsessed with religion, the son was experimenting with religious behaviors and got caught, the poor little girl was writhing on the floor and the mom was reliving dreams of her past and stealing things. RETARDED!!! don't see it.

  I think this set a record. I wasn't even half an hour in when I turned it off. lovely piece of literature, dullest first twenty minutes of a film in movie history

  I liked it but I couldn't relate to any of the characters...I thought Kate Bosworth was good in it, I liked her little role. I didn't really understand the religion thing. Or the mothers character I have no idea what that was all about and the girl was a little annoying. So it was okay...
