Beginning in the 1930's, "The English Patient" tells the story of Count
Almásy who is a Hungarian map maker employed by the Royal Geographical
Society to chart the vast expanses of the Sahara Desert along with
several other prominent explorers. As World War II unfolds, Almásy
enters into a world of love, betrayal, and politics that is later
revealed in a series of flashbacks while Almásy is on his death bed
after being horribly burned in a plane crash. Written by

The English Patient User Reviews
Absolute Perfection!
TEP is like a long
cool drink of water after crawling across the Sahara to classic film
buffs who have been too long deprived of that certain cinematic magic!
Not only is it beautifully photographed, but the characters are
perfectly portrayed. If you're looking for the film to be a mirror of
the book, you will be seriously disappointed. Instead, it is an
excellent "companion" to the book, and I think that is what Anthony
Minghella intended. Ralph Fiennes is probably the most beautiful man in
the world; not to mention a brilliant actor. Juliette Binoche is the
posterchild for vulnerability and childlike enthusiasm. And, of course,
I'll go see any film in which Kristin Scott Thomas is featured. She
simply must be THE best actress since the likes of Deborah Kerr. So
much was promised with this film, and so much is delivered!
