Revisionist History: Gandhi

by George_Chabot George_Chabot is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Sep 17 '02

Gandhi--The Key to India's Indpendence

by Super_Jerome , Jun 14 '00
Pros: The story of Gandhi is important for everyone to see
Cons: None
This movie is an excellent account of the world-wide impact of Gandhi. It chronicles much of his life as a peacemaker. I believe that Gandhi is one of the greatest leaders that the world has ever seen (even Dr. Martin Luther King borrowed from him)....

Ben Kingsley IS Gandhi!

by WBDBaj , Dec 20 '01
Pros: Ben Kingsley
Cons: sometimes items are rushed through, and the detail is foggy to the viewer
I saw this movie when it came out years ago, and my husband and I rented it two weekends ago. It is long - 2 tapes and about 3 hours. It is worth the trouble!
