I love this movie!

Rating: 10/10 (2 March 2002)

Doctor Zhivago is a film of epic proportions. The cinematography is absolutely incredible, and the acting superb. This is the kind of movie that you quite literally "live" when you view it. I get so caught up in the lives of the characters and the politics of the times in Russia, that I actually get lost in the plot. Julie Christie is a woman of indescribable beauty and charm, and Omar Sharif a dashing and virile man. Together, these two leading characters captivate their audience for the entire movie. I have been in love with Julie Christie for years and ladies who have viewed this film feel the same about Sharif. The supporting cast is incredible and Rod Steiger is especially good in his part. If you are a lover of music as I am, Maurice Jarre's Academy Award winning score will thrill you. I have seen this film a dozen or more times in its entirety over the years and never grow tired of it. Doctor Zhivago receives my two thumbs up, a true 10!
