 Quote :- "Evelyn" Director Bruce Beresford presents the landmark case
 of Desmond Doyle (Pierce Brosnan), who in the early 1950s fought to
 regain custody of his children after his wife ran off. Brosnan digs
 deep to his Irish roots to create an earnest, matter-of-fact
 performance, and the film, despite its flaws, tugs masterfully at the
 heart. THE BOSTON GLOBE
