The Greatest Epic

Rating: Null/10 (7 May 1999)

I envy anyone seeing this masterpiece for the first time. It's simply the greatest epic ever filmed. The first time I saw it was the year it came out, when I was in high school. Even then, before I had ever considered film as anything but Saturday afternoon entertainment, I knew I was in the presence of greatness. Acting, music score, cinematography -- all components of this film work; it's a movie without a serious flaw. Repeated viewings of Lawrence have left me breathless with admiration.
