Now this is film...

Rating: 10/10 (24 February 1999)

Minghella has taken an excellent book and turned it into a classic movie. everything in this movie was done to the point of near perfection. Fiennes and Thomas's performances are done without flaw. Seale's cinematography is simply breathtaking. Yared's score sets the perfect tone and feel of the movie. And Minghella's script and dialogue are some of the best I've ever have had the pleasure of hearing and seeing on the screen. If you have strayed from this film because its a romance or a "chick flick", watch it anyway. If Minghella can manage to convert me to loving this genre, he can bring you with us too.
