BrianSez's Review

Summary - Great 4.0

A movie worthy of its epic status. “Passage” gives us a dramatic view colonial India, and the struggling relationship between the Indians and the British. This tale follows two travelers from England and their journey in to India. A surprisingly thorough examination of the emotion behind the politics in addition to a very well told drama.

Acting - Very Good 3.5

Well done from the entire cast. Too many great performances to go in to really.

Male Stars - Very Good 3.5

Female Stars - Very Good 3.5

Female Costars - Very Good 3.5

Male Costars - Very Good 3.5

Film - Great 4.0

The film is a bit dated now, but David Lean exhibits hallmark style one still gets a sense of the grandeur of India, the night-and-day difference in cultures, and the angst that colonialism has caused. Add to that a really well told adventure/time/drama, and you have all the right ingredients for a classic.
