Chris' Movie Questions: My MYSTIC RIVER Review
MaineWriter:
I don't think I have seen this since 1982 but my recollection is yes, good.
JennyC:
I like the movie and have recommended the movie as mandatory viewing. It's a decent movie about Gandhi's life, and a very inspiring story. I am no expert on the movie’s artistic achievement, but that is one movie that I won’t mind to see it again (I think I have seen it 2 or 3 times).
chefjudy:
:) Chris - this is a very good movie - much background on Ghandi and insight into the politics prior to India's independence - Ben Kingsley deserved his Oscar that year for the portrayal - he went above and beyond for the performance of his career, I think - well worth renting or buying - music is good also................
twistedude:
Gandhi--excellent, informastive and sympathetic. Kingsly does a fine job.\
Gandhi talked of freedom one night
I said "Man, we gotta fight"
He said "Yes, but love's the weapon we must use.
For with killing no one wins
It's with love that peace begins,
It takes courage when you're only passing therough.
Passsing through, passing through,
sometimes happy, sometimes blue
glad that I ran into you
we're all brothers and we're only passing through.
Leonard Cohen song, verse inserted by Quakers.

Excellent movie, I remember it as being the first time I really noticed Ben Kingsley and he was brillant. :D
