The greatest motion picture of all time

Rating: 10/10 (26 February 1999)

It is difficult to find the superlatives to convey the scale, beauty, drama, art and sheer achievement of this film. Every shot is a major achievement of photography. Every performer is exceptional (it is probably the best cast ever assembled), with Peter O'Toole giving a performance without parallel (which, shockingly, did not win an Oscar). The story and settings are pure epic. David Lean shows himself as one of the most gifted directors in th history of cinema, giving us an unforgettable experience.
