films rarely obtain such perfection

Rating: 10/10 (25 January 2001)

Films rarely obtain such perfection. The Screen-Play (Spielberg has called it "the best ever written"), Direction, Photography, Score and Cast Performances are all beyond superb.
To find such quality in a 90 min studio based picture would be rare but to have all these in a film of this scope was and is quite incredible.
One point, don't rely on a pan & scan TV presentation as so many do, but catch it as it was designed - 70mm Print with multi track stereo sound!
