This is not simply a review of this very fine movie but an important historical note on it. You should correct the screenplay credits of your listing. Until their deaths the director David Lean, the producer Sam Spiegel and the co-writer Robert Bolt all denied the immense contribution to the script by Michael Wilson. In 1995 the Writer's Guild of America West finally acknowledged that the blacklisted American screenwriter Michael Wilson officially deserved co-credit with Robert Bolt, as he did for Bridge on the River Kwai and several other great American films. Wilson was one of the finest screenwriters of the 20th century and richly deserves this belated credit.
