'Fugitive Pieces' Adaptation Sucks the Poetry Out of a Holocaust Survival Talenew

'Then She Found Me' is a Well-Made, Bittersweet Motherhood Dramanew
Fertility, and its opposite, are suddenly a bit of a Hollywood hot topic. While Tina Fey's Baby Mama runs with the comic approach to the subject, Helen Hunt's Then She Found Me is a much more bittersweet dramatic take.
