One of the best movies ever made

Rating: 10/10 (15 April 1999)

This is my all-time favorite movie, so I'm biased, but I would recommend it to anyone at all. It's got everything--passion, culture, madness, genius, vulgarity, and politics--and features two of the best performances I've ever seen (F. Murray Abraham, who won the Oscar, and Tom Hulce, who should have shared it). It also has absolutely brilliant supporting performances, particularly Jeffrey Jones and Simon Callow.
