We feel the bitter cold on this, our third journey with David Lean as he takes us to the Russian Revolution with his sumptuous adaptation of Doctor Zhivago. Amy and Steve ponder why the titular actor is not, in fact, the first billed, try to dissect Russian history is about two minutes - to varying degrees of success - and come to the conclusion that the most interesting characters are the two that the film does not pay enough attention to. And how addicting is that score from Maurice Jarre? All that, and just how hard it is to be Omar Sharif caught between two of the most gorgeous women ever. The worst, amirite? Did Doctor Zhivago deserve to win over The Sound of Music? Tune in and find out.
