To anyone under 70 writing a review here. Be aware that all movies made in this time frame mid-60s were like this. So were all TV dramas. There's nothing special here and plenty that's irritating. I can't believe how many of these reviewers think that something is stunning because it's in black and white. Everything was in black and white at one time. It doesn't make it great and neither do long silences - that's just a style of acting. Anyway aside from this I just want to say only one other person seems to have noticed Steve McQueen was lip syncing very badly to a crummy version of this famous song. It was constantly on the radio at the time and yet even now over 50 years later it irritates me that it's all throughout this movie little parts of it in every scene. And yet they don't bother playing the full hit song at all like what's up with that? I mean I just watched it on YouTube it seems to be complete except the song is missing and maybe they couldn't get the rights to the song although they got the rights to the movie?. But worse than that is the almost constant over acting. It's very much like a soap opera I mean that's fine if that's what you like. If that's what you're in the mood for that's fine. But it's only useful if you want to examine the movie Style of the mid-60s or see the various actors in it that you like. I do have all respect for this motion picture. It's just that it's only of its time and doesn't hold up. Of course it's watchable if you're in the mood. I just find it average and don't understand all the extreme accolades here.
