Review of The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957) by Marco F — 01 Dec 2013
David Lean's great wartime masterpiece is not really about war, but about minds who partake in war. THE BRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAI, based on a book by the French author Pierre Bouille, is one of the finest war films ever made- and it's my personal favorite war film.
It has brilliant performances throughout, one of the finest scripts ever written and committed to a major motion picture, and visionary, headstrong direction.
