Showtimes
Currently, the film is not showing in cinemas, but we can send you a message when this animated film returns to the box office.
Henry Acheson
You picked on me because I was headed for success. Stephen was pure charm and all failure. You loved him but you loved my prospects better.
Evelyn Acheson
Why are you bringing all this up now? It's ridiculous to hear you call something love that I knew even at the time was mere youthful infatuation. What's it got to do with the child's behavior anyway?
Henry Acheson
If you'd married Stephen as you really wanted to, Elizabeth might have been your daughter.
Evelyn Acheson
Now I suppose you're blaming me because we never had a child?
Henry Acheson
I blame you for swindling me into a loveless marriage. You chose me because I was a good choice as a husband, but you never gave me a single moment of that one indispensable thing: real love. Our marriage was bound to be barren. And your hatred of this child is the natural outcome of an unnatural life!
