RICHARD ATTENBOROUGH for "Gandhi"
Many of the major awards among 1982 films were swept by director Sir Richard Attenborough's earnest, conventional three-hour long, costume epic biography/story of the life of the great, noble and venerable Indian leader, the Mahatma Gandhi (with eleven nominations and eight wins). It won the largest number of awards for any British film up to that time - although the film was financed by Columbia Studios. (The year before, the British film Chariots of Fire was also honored with many accolades - seven nominations and four wins.)

Ghandi is a great film. I loved watching it and still do. Historically there are some inaccuracies but no director could have depicted such a great man and a historically complex moment of history with total clarity.
ReplyDeleteIt's a 10 out of 10 for me. A classic film and a film that my children enjoyed watching, which demonstrates it's timeless appeal.
