The Best Epic Movie I have EVER seen

Rating: 10/10 (29 June 2000)

I have seen all of the epic movies made, "Gone With The Wind", "Ben Hur", "The Gladiator" etc...in this category (including Gibson's Braveheart) this stands alone!! The music set the scenes and actually got my adrenal system overloaded!! It was outstanding!! Realizing, in part I loved the film because of the excellent acting of the actors, the character development, and based in part on actual history, and my deep patriotic feelings for my Country, America!! This film should receive not only Academy Award nominations, but the Oscar for Acting and musical score (and other numerous awards such as best costume's etc). It is rare that I feel as strong about a film in a positive way as I do this....It brings back into focus the privilege, not right, of being an American!1
