Doctor Zhivago
A sumptuous film version of Boris Pasternak's Nobel Prize-winning novel. It features younger actors in the key roles and stays truer to the novel than the 1965 film. Keira Knightley and Hans Matheson are incandescent as Lara and Yury; Sam Neill shines as the villainous Victor Komarovsky.
