Wonderful love story!

Rating: 9/10 (23 October 1999)

"The English Patient" really impressed me. I know that some people though it was boring and slow but, for Christ's sake, what were they looking for when they went to see this film? An action thriller? OK, there are some slow moments in fact, but it is not a reason to give this film a low vote. I am sure that those people are the same fake-intelectuals who hated "Eyes Wide Shut".
"The English Patient" deserved all the 9 Oscars it won. It is much better than "Fargo", "Secrets and Lies", "Jerry Maguire" and even "Shine". Everything on it is so wonderful that I watched it one more time. One thing that I can't forget to say is this: Juliette Binoche is just incredible! Even after winning an Oscar she didn't left France and keeps doing films there. That shows a great personality!
I have said many things, but I can write only one sentence to describe "The English Patient": a wonderful love story!
