 Out of Africa, 2008-11-17
Watching this movie was an amazing surprise. I had heard of it but never had the opportunity to watch it. It was beautiful, and a wonderful story.
Great movie!, 2008-10-15
Classic movie that never ceases to entertain. A beautiful love story, beautifully told...still makes me cry.
So good, 2008-10-09
I remember going to see this in the theater. It is still a vivid love story - between her and Africa, as well as her and Denis.
Breathtaking, 2008-09-05
This is one of the best romantic movies I have ever seen. It touches on the need to be independent but at the same time wanting companionship and closeness with another. I can say that I found this to be somehow feminist especially in the way karen Blixen handled her life and went against what might have been considered proper female behaivor at that time. She followed her heart and regardless of what was thrown her way she handled it with dignity and strength. The part of the movie that I particularly liked was when marriage was being discussed with robert redford's character and he says that a piece of paper will not make him love her more(my feelings exactly). i loved this movie and will definitely watch it again.
 Pollack's classic Oscar winner, 2008-08-17
The recently deceased Sidney Pollack made many fine movies but this one along with "They Shoot Horses, Don't They", ranks among his best. An Oscar winner for Best Picture and Best Director, Pollack in the best David Lean fashion has made a love letter to Africa--the land, its people. It's basically a love story of Issak Dinesan who tries to tame Africa, her adopted land and the man she loves, Denys Finch Hatton. Streep & Robert Redford are excellent in their roles though for some reason only known to Pollack, Redford speaks in his normal American rather with a English dialect since the character is a Brit. I'm told Redford wanted to use an English dialect but Pollack said no. Also outstanding is Klaus Maria Blandauer in the dual roles as Dinessen's husband and the husband's brother. I've hesitated purchasing this because I am hoping Universal will release it in Blu-ray soon. This film deserves to be seen on a big flat-screen TV!!
