One of the best

Rating: 10/10 (11 October 2014)

Greetings from Lithuania.
"The English Patient" (1996) is a superb thing. I saw this picture 4 time, and it took me away every single time. What a picture! 9 Oscars doesn't go so simply to one picture. It's a superb movie making, superb story, and a superb experience all around. Late superb movie maker Anthony Minghella created his masterpiece almost without flaws. Yes, this movie is not for everyone. On the core it's a love story. But at the same time it's so much more. It's represents life and time itself. Every single time i saw this picture, i felt time that is going by, like in this movie, time is irrelevant, and on the same time, no one can escape their destiny, and time itself. Life goes on, and it doesn't really matter if you still here or not, life will go on.
This is a haunting movie, it created ideas, feelings in my mind that i will never forget. When we see Hana at the end going in a truck, sun is shining and she is moving by those trees, we see life itself, the world will be still here, only human will change - grab this moment, enjoy it while you can, because time is unstoppable.
Overall, 10/10 for "The English Patient" - a superb love story, a true art in ideas - it's hard to imagine a true moviegoer who won't appreciate this picture.
