Synopsis:
A peerless filmmaker of substance and scale, David Lean directs Boris Pasternak's tumultuous tale of Russia divided by war and hearts torn by love. Epic images abound: revolution in the streets, an infantry charge into no-man's-land, the train ride to the Urals, an icebound dacha. Omar Sharif plays the title role, Julie Christie is his haunting, long-time love Lara and both are caught up in the tidal wave of history.

Dr Zhivago - Doctor Zhivago review by HS

Spoiler Alert
12/07/2018

Your DVD is incomplete - it only shows the first two hours of this three-hour film. Such a pity, because it is a wonderful film - I saw it when it first came out in the 1960s and had been so looking forward to seeing it ALL again. You should get a double sided DVD for your clients, like you have of GONE WITH THE WIND.

Where is the rest? - Doctor Zhivago review by LW

Spoiler Alert

This is not the whole film let alone the 2007 remaster! It is one side of an old 2 sided disc. Really disappointed.
