Hand Double?

I was at perusing the upcoming summer movie offerings and found this nifty one called The Lake House. Interesting concept (time travelling notes) with two of my favorite actors (Sandra Bullock & Keanu Reeves). The only thing I found odd was the following item:

Keanu's Hand Double

Does anyone really need a hand double? The same thing was done during The Princess Diaries for Anne Hathaway’s “messed up fingernails scene”. Except, that poor girl didn’t get a credit for it on IMDB! And besides, do we really have to have hand doubles? It just seems kind of silly to me.

    This sounds like a remake of a Korean movie called Il Mare (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0282599/).

    By the way, they probably used a hand double, because Reeves wasn’t available at the time.

    I had not thought that they’d have him unavailable for that sort of thing. You’re probably right. That’s still a little strange to me.
