Clearly the worst movie of 1996

Rating: 1/10 (4 May 2004)

Clearly the worst movie of 1996 This movie is an outrageous insult to every movie-lover. When they gave out the oscars in spring 1997 I stopped taking them serious.
The sugar sweet story is thick as syrup and I hope the original print of this stain on the history of cinema will sink in the sands of the desert it depicts. Seeing Ralph Fiennes in this after Strange Days (one of the best Science Fiction movies of all time!) really almost made me cry. All of the good actors waste their talent in this one. And even Anthony Minghella has managed to make better movies since English Patient. I don't know what went wrong here...
