David Lean focused all his talent as an epic-maker on Boris Pasternak's sweeping novel about a doctor-poet in revolutionary Russia. The results may sometimes veer toward soap opera, especially with the screen frequently filled with adoring close-ups of Omar Sharif and Julie Christie, but Lean's gift for cramming the screen with spectacle is not to be denied. The streets of Moscow, the snowy steppes of Russia, the house in the country taken over by ice; these are re-created with Lean's unerring sense of grandness. The movie is so lush and so long that it becomes an irresistible wallow, even when logic suffers--like Gone with the Wind before it and Titanic after. Sharif, who achieved stardom in Lean's previous film, Lawrence of Arabia, mostly looks noble, but the supporting cast is spiky: Rod Steiger as a fat-cat monster, Tom Courtenay as a self-righteous revolutionary, and Klaus Kinski and Alec Guinness in smaller roles. Geraldine Chaplin, in her adult debut, plays the doctor's compliant wife. Robert Bolt's screenplay won one of the film's five Oscars, with another going to perhaps the most immediately recognizable element of the movie: Maurice Jarre's romantic music, with its hugely popular "Lara's Theme" weaving in and out of a swooning score. --Robert Horton |

out of sync |
|
I like the movie, and the dvd set is fine, but I prefer to watch movies with the words and the mouth movements in sync. Marketadvisory has sent me two of the two-disc special edition, and they're both out of sync. |

Dr. Zhivago |
|
Great story telling. So much story to follow, so much history to learn and wonder about how the human race can survive so much. |

|
A masterpiece! |
|
What am I suppose to say? words cannot describe the delicacy of its squeamish characters. |

Great Film After All These Years... |
|
Dr. Zhivago is still a great film after more than 40 years since its original release. My greatest moment is the very end, where Dr. Z. suffers a heart attack and collapses just after he spots a woman he thinks is Lara. |
