Winner
of nine Academy Awards and almost every critic's heart, The English
Patient (based on Michael Ondaatje's prizewinning novel of love
and loss during World War II) is one of the most acclaimed films
of modern times. Hana, a nurse (Juliette Binoche), tends to an
archaeologist (Ralph Fiennes) who has been burnt to a crisp in
a plane crash. As their relationship intensifies, he flashes
back to his overwhelming passion for a married woman (Kristin
Scott Thomas). Meanwhile, Hana begins a new romance with a man
who defuses bombs (Naveen Andrews) and Willem Dafoe almost steals
the show as the thumbless thief Caravaggio. The intricately layered
flashback narrative, sounding the depths of the lovers' hearts,
improves with repeated viewings.
