Rating: 2.5/5 -- It doesn't transfigure the world. It embalms it.
New York Times
May 9, 2005
Rating: 2/4 -- A disappointing failure of tone, a lush and overblown self-indulgence in which David Lean has given us a great deal less than meets the eye. Full Review
Chicago Sun-Times
Oct 24, 2004
Rating: 1/5 -- A weary Madame Bovary rehash set in rural Ireland. Full Review
Times (UK)
Jul 14, 2017
Overlength of perhaps 30 minutes serves to magnify some weaknesses of Robert Bolt's original screenplay, to dissipate the impact of the performances, and to overwhelm outstanding photography and production. Full Review

Rating: 0/5 -- If you are looking for a breath of fresh Eire, you are in the wrong movie.

Rating: 3/4 -- Some hippie-dippiness dates the picture, but the vérité posturing of Lean's peers looks a lot kitschier in retrospect Full Review

4 stars out of 5 -- Today it looks like genius; as Lean's visionary leanings run off the hook with symbolic weather and flora...

Product Description:

David Lean's epic tale of forbidden love, set during the Irish Rebellion of 1916 tells the story of Charles Shaughnessy (Robert Mitchum), a kind and gentle widower, who falls in love with and marries the much younger Rosy (Sarah Miles). On her wedding night, however, Rosy finds that her new husband does not make her romantic dreams come true. When a handsome young Major arrives to take over England's occupying forces, he and Rosy feel an immediate sexual attraction to each other. Unable to resist temptation despite the dangers, the two begin a passionate affair. But when someone betrays the Irish rebels to the British authorities, the whole town suspects Rosy. They're determined to make her pay... and it doesn't matter whether or not she's innocent. Academy Award Nominations: 4, including Best Actress--Sarah Miles. Academy Awards: Best Supporting Actor--John Mills, Best Cinematography.
