Plot:
Biographical epic on the life of Mohandas K Gandhi, a proponent of peaceful revolution who led his country's fight for independence and was subsequently assassinated.
Gandhi: Biographical empic on the life of Mohandas k Gandhi, a proponent of peaseful revolution who led his countrys fight for independence and was subsequently assassinated.
A wonderful biographical movie doesn't require an unforgettable plot. As long as it can tell the life of the protagonist accurately and make audience agree with him (or hate him in the case of villains) and have a clear image, it will be a masterpiece. Gandhi is one of them. Comparing with Milos Forman's Amadeus, Mozart will just be a talented and pitiful man in our eyes; Gandhi is, however, an adorable and memorable hero. We can observe his charisma and immortal spirit here. So once again, it's just amazing! Maybe together with Amadeus, they are the best and most deserved Oscar Best Picture winner for the 80s!
I so wanted Paul Newman to win for 'The Verdict' and was so mad that Kingsley won instead that I refused to watch this movie for YEARS! Then I watched it and saw why Kingsley won! AMAZING!!!
Fantastic performances all around and has Daniel Day-Lewis as a young hooligan character. The movie is a bit long, but it's an epic so what do you expect?
'An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind'.
I'm not into putting quotes at the beginning of my reviews, but this particular remark sums up a special part of Gandhi so well that it had to be mentioned.
I was skeptical at first, what with a British man playing the lead. However, Ben Kingsley pleasantly surprised me (as he has done once or twice before), and really rose up to the challenge of playing such an extraordinary man.
At over three hours, it can be daunting for some. However, a point should be made to see it, and satisfy your rebellious side.
The movie shifts well between portraying the man and explaining his mission. The unusual effect Gandhi had on the crowds, or the way he kept himself together, is reason enough for his name to be written on the majority of Hulett's sugar packages.
What a man.
