Product Description

 
David Lean's DOCTOR ZHIVAGO is an exploration of the Russian Revolution as seen from the point of view of the intellectual, introspective title character (Omar Sharif). As the political landscape changes, and the Czarist regime comes to an end, Dr. Zhivago's relationships reflect the political turmoil raging about him. Though he is married, the vagaries of war lead him to begin a love affair with the beautiful Lara (Julie Christie). But he cannot escape the machinations of a band of selfish and cruel characters: General Strelnikov (Tom Courtenay), a Bolshevik General; Komarovsky (Rod Steiger), Lara's former lover; and Yevgraf (Alec Guinness), Zhivago's sinister half-brother. This epic, sweeping romance, told in flashback, captures the lushness of Moscow before the war and the violent social upheaval that followed. The film is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Boris Pasternak.

David Lean's-Doctor Zhivago-1965

Date of Review:  Aug 21, 2002
The Bottom Line: One of the most moving romantic movies of all time, Doctor Zhivago is a wonderful cinematic experience. Take time to watch it again, even if you have already seen it.
Review: One of the most romantic epics every filmed, Doctor Zhivago was an immensely popular film in it?s day. Because I had really loved this movie in the theaters, I was afraid to watch it. Frankly I didn?t think it could live up to my memory of it. To my...

Date of Review:  Oct 11, 2005
The Bottom Line: One of the greatest epic films ever made, despite some shortcomings in the screenplay.
Review: If your love for Doctor Zhivago is unqualified, you may not enjoy reading this review. For that matter, if your scorn for the film knows no bounds, you probably will find much to disagree with in this review as well. In my opinion, the Academy...

ZZZZZ-ZZZ-ZZ ... ZHIVAGO

Date of Review:  Aug 18, 2000
The Bottom Line: A lengthy romance set in pre-revolution Russia stars Omar Sharif and Julie Christie.
Review: DR. ZHIVAGO (1965)

David Lean's movies have some common characteristics: epic themes, big characters, brilliant British actors, vast panoramas, casts of thousands, recurring themes, loving camera work, L-o-o-o-n-g running times. When the...
