Best Film of all time

Rating: 10/10 (6 July 2001)

I can't say enough about this film. It's amazing. The director doesn't cop out by trying to sell the lead character as some infallible hero without flaws. Instead, he digs deep into the character, letting you see him slowly go mad. Very powerful stuff. They do not make them like this anymore. I think this is Lean's best work, better than A Bridge.. Although I usually refrain from giving this a 10 out of 10, since I'd like to think a 10 is unattainable, I gave this a 10 to get it back where it belongs in the list: in the top 3. This is as perfect a film as I can imagine.
