"Braveheart" 1776, although I didn't like "Braveheart" half as much as this film. While I could see exactly how and where I was being emotionally manipulated, it was also remarkably effective. One huge point it its favor: while the baddest of the bad guys is really evil, it's very clear and reasonable how and why he is what he is. This whole film may be done in broad strokes, but at least everyone is done with an original brush. B

I can remember a time when where we went to the movies was just as important as the movies we went to see .... From the moment moviegoers arrived to buy their tickets, there was a sense of something special, a feeling that to step inside was to enter another time and place. - Gene Kelly
