One of the absolute best!

Rating: 10/10 (17 January 2004)

I do not give away plot details (nor do I understand why Anyone does!), let me say this: you will Not be disappointed. A truly great film, most will agree. Much better than the Piano in my mind. I'm sure the B & W hurt the box office, but Spielberg isn't concerned with that, was he?! For me, the B & W made it less intense (I'm nearly sure, that wasn't the main M.O.; probably done because Steven "saw" the past in B & W) & I was glad. I do wish to single out Liam Neeson & Ralph Fiennes for electrifying performances.
Can not be overly praised.
