Finest film ever? Probably.

Rating: 10/10 (11 March 2001)

Quite simply, one of the finest films ever committed to celluloid. Spielberg perfectly marries his now fully-matured filmmaking style with a small scale, humanistic, (and as-yet unsurpassed) perspective on the worst period in human history.
And if either Tom Hanks or Tommy Lee Jones think that they will ever be forgiven for robbing, repectively, Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes of Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor in 1993 for their performances in Philadelphia and The Fugitive(?!), they ae sorely mistaken. I thank you.
