BRIEF ENCOUNTER (1945)
DIRECTED BY DAVID LEAN
REVIEW OF THE 2008 ITV DVD
INTRODUCTION
Continuing my ‘Lean Season’ reviews this latest review is about one of David Lean’s earlier films – ‘Brief Encounter’ released in 1945 The film received Oscar nominations for Best Actress, Best Director and Best Screenplay. It won the Grand Prix at the Cannes Film Festival. It is at second place in the British Film Institute Top ...
...was the fourth film that David Lean had directed.. As with his first three films, the story was based on a play by Noel Coward. Coward himself worked as a screenwriter and producer on the film.
My geographical claim to fame with this film is that the famous station scene with ‘that’ clock was shot at Carnforth station, Lancashire, which is about 10 miles away from where I live.
I always think of this film as a British ‘Casablanca’, and like ‘Casablanca’ ...

Understanding A Beautiful Mind.
Advantages: An excellent award winning drama, based on a true story.
Disadvantages: None!
My Reason For Purchasing A Beautiful Mind DVD. I wrote this review a year or so ago for another review site which has since closed. I thought I would upload it here as A Beautiful Mind is one of my favourite Drama films ever and I just wanted to recommend it and give some opinions on it. There is quite a few reviews already about it, but I just wanted to give my two cents worth also. A Beautiful mind is one of my favourite Russell Crowe Movies. ...
...I watched this film a few years ago at the Movie house and I enjoyed it so much, that I bought it on DVD when it first was released. I have watched it several times over the years and each time I do, I love it more and always seem to pick up on something I missed in the film the previous time I watched it. This really is an excellent film that really will keep you glued to your seat in my opinion. Well this Movie was first released on December 21, ...

Problems in paradise
Advantages: Story and cast
Disadvantages: none
...will like his 2000 film, The Beach, which seems him work again with producer Andrew Macdonald and writer John Hodge.
The Beach is about a young American backpacker Richard (Leonardo DiCaprio), who is looking for something totally different experiences from his normal day to day life. He meets a weird stranger, Daffy (Robert Carlyle), in Thailand, who claims to be a former native of a rumoured paradise island, inhabited by wayward travellers. Daffy ...
...to go in search of the island along with two travellers, Françoise (Virginie Ledoyen) and her boyfriend, Étienne (Guillaume Canet) who he meets on his journey. Richard soon discovers that his dreams of an idyllic paradise are not always what they seem, as his search turns into a nightmare.
This is a good adaptation of the novel by Alex Garland, The Beach. Some people may not like that some of the story has been changed slightly, but I think that ...

Babel A film of great depth that stays on your mind
Advantages: Cleverly directed, well acted, interesting how the stories are connected
Disadvantages: A couple of sexual scenes which may unnerve the easily offended
...consequences that can have. Babel is therefore about more than just language or cultural barriers as it deals with the much deeper issue of the isolation of one human being from another, from the strangers we interact with in our daily lives, to our husband or wife, father or daughter. This is one of those films where you understand the beginning only when you get to the end, and this further serves to convey the moral of the film which appears to ...
