This is without a doubt, one of the biggest tearjerkers of all time. Liz is exquisite and painfully beautiful. Monty plays the role like he was born for it. I saw it at the age of 12, and have never forgotten how bigger than life it seemed. Now 66, I have seen them all, and it is still the best. Critic George Raborn finally settled on it as his favorite of all time as I remember. It was a tossup between Sun and the first King Kong for awhile. He was called the "World's Champion Movie Goer" or something like that years and years ago. When Liz and Monty were talking through his jail cell bars, and finally ended it all with their goodbyes, I must have cried myself to sleep that night, just thinking about it. There will never be another one like it.
