That’s how long it takes a Best Picture-winning, fiercely revered classic to descend into camp and cheese. Not even Titanic got there that fast (it was never that highly revered by anyone male and over the age of 13 at the time of its release). [...] [...] Twelve years.

Yes, the cast is wonderful and this film is the one that introduced Sophie Marceau to American audiences. I found that years later, I still love Braveheart and can see why it won best picture, but yes, it had fierce competition. Actually, the movie I think maybe should have won was Apollo 13. I totally used to dig Mel Gibson and have enjoyed all of the movies he's acted in (or at least I've enjoyed HIM in them, because Signs sucked). I'm just sorry that he went off the deep end and ruined his reputation. You are so right, Royce, his back catalog of movies is now tainted unfortunately. I got The Prisoner joke, too!

I have not seen this since 1995 and I agree there were better films that year that you mentioned and some others. THe cast is the selling point here. I forgot some of those great actors were in it. I miss Ian Bannen a lot. And I got your Prisoner joke, it was a good one. Excellent work. This is a really good review, Royce.
