One of the great films

Rating: Null/10 (30 July 1998)

I have seen the film many times. It is an amazingly durable piece. It endures because of the underlying meaning -- a man is faced with the choice of being a responsible person or simply following his emotional whims. Every character has some interesting quality or quirk. I have used the film in my classes to make the point of how a good story can have a deeper meaning without coming across as a sermon.
