I’m not sure what it is about Gwyneth Paltrow, but I’ve just never really been able to take her seriously before. I found her over-the-top in Shakespeare in Love, and extremely irritating in Emma, although admittedly there, that was part and parcel of the character of Emma Woodhouse. For me, she just doesn’t have that star quality that makes me want to go see her films. Proof however, has made me reconsider my viewpoint, as she excels in the role of grieving daughter Katherine, who is having trouble coming to terms with the possibility that she may have inherited some of her dead father’s madness, as well as some of his genius.
