Doctor Zhivago - 30th Anniversary Edition David Lean focused all his talent as an epic-maker on Boris Pasternak’s sweeping novel about a doctor-poet in revolutionary Russia. The results may sometimes veer toward soap opera, especially with the screen frequently filled with adoring close-ups of Omar Sharif and Julie Christie, but Lean’s gift for cramming the screen with spectacle is not to be denied. The streets of Moscow, the snowy steppes of Russia, the house in the country taken over by ice; these are re-created with Lean’s unerring sense of grandness. The movie is so lush and so long that it becomes an irresistible wallow, even when logic suffers–like Gone with the Wind before it and Titanic after. Sharif, who achieved stardom in Lean’s previous film, Lawrence of Arabia, mostly looks noble, but the supporting cast is spiky: Rod Steiger as a fat-cat monster, Tom Courtenay as a self-righteous revolutionary, and Klaus Kinski and Alec Guinness in smaller roles. Geraldine Chaplin, in her adult debut, plays the doctor’s compliant wife. Robert Bolt’s screenplay won one of the film’s five Oscars , with another going to perhaps the most immediately recognizable element of the movie: Maurice Jarre’s romantic music, with its hugely popular “Lara’s Theme” weaving in and out of a swooning score. –Robert Horton
