Agree with you on the strength of the acting in Doubt -- which is the strength of the film vs the stage version. I saw the play last year, the movie this year (when mom was visiting over Christmas.) For me, Hoffman's character was played differently in the two. In the film, there was more Doubt. There were discussions about the role of Doubt in our every day lives following the play instead of stories of innocence vs guilt.
Nevertheless, really enjoyed the both and was rooting for Hoffman to get an Oscar.
