Doctor Zhivago (1965)
This movie is shinning.
In the top ten of my most favorite movies.
I have read the novel twice, and David Lean did a wonderful job of recreating the book on film.
The photography alone, is worth the price of the video.
Rod Steiger should have won an academy award for this movie.
Omar Sharif, his best moments on film.
Julie Christie is a sight to behold. All these years later, she is still beautiful. The scene in which she is ironing and saying goodbye to Zhivago, one of the best! The scene in the library with Zhivago, I could watch this over and over. The scenes on the train with Klaus Kinski, playing the prisoner. Tom Courtenay's scenes with Julie Christie... I could go on and on, but then no one would read my post.
Karakter (1997)
Very Moving
One morning very early, I couldn't sleep, Karakter was playing on the Sundance Channel. My first thought was, it being 3am, what the heck is Robert Downey Jr. doing in a foreign film? I watched until 5am and sent for three copies of the film the next day. I had to FORCE some people, to watch a foreign film. I loved the film and am still ordering copies, giving them away. The film affected me so much, because I had grown up with someone very similar to the father in the film.
