A thing of beauty........

Rating: 10/10 (30 March 2006)

Perhaps the most perfect film ever made. Words simply cannot express how much I love it. The dialogue is wonderful on the ear, the soundtrack actually story enhancing, the cinematography expansive, the direction sublime, and the actors - simply perfection. All of the characters in this film were endlessly interesting, textured and rich. I think everyone in this cast deserved an award. This film continues to haunt me (in the very best way). I watch this film several times a year, and never cease to be amazed by all of the performances. This film should be placed in a time capsule as an example of excellence in film for the end of the last century. Have I gushed enough for everyone?
