Review of The English Patient (1996) by Icelakewang — 10 Jun 2013
Good. As it’s hard to find true love in real world, so it’s nice to be moved by an ideal one in a film. Your assumed friends may suspect you, and your supposed enemy might respect you, that’s why Almásy is delayed in rescuing his ankle-injured lover, and why the vengeful Caravaggio gives up revenge after knowing all these.
A traitor is not a traitor when he himself is betrayed by some peremptory authority, and when such betrayal is necessitated by great love.
