Beautifully Elegant

Rating: 9/10 (28 September 1999)

From the opening shot to the final tear in your eye, The English Patient is an intellegent and elegant film full of beautifully shot scenery and outstanding performances from the actors. Fiennes especially delivers a great turn as the love struck "hero" as does Binnoche as the nurse who tends the patients wounds. Full of great lines and stunning visual acting "The English Patient" remains one of the finest British films ever made - and it just goes to prove they can make them like they used to.
