Doctor Zhivago (200 minutes)
Filmed in 1965, the movie Doctor Zhivago was set in the years just before and after the Russian Revolution. ...
The main character, Yuri Zhivago, is introduced as a fatherless child around the age of ten, and his mother has just died. He aspires to become a doctor but also has a passion for writing poetry. Zhivago marries into an upper class family that soon becomes torn apart by the ravages of World War I and the Russian Revolution. ... Zhivago is caught up in one particularly savage demonstration when the city garrison attacks and kills many demonstrators outside of his home. Being a doctor, Zhivago tries to help the wounded, but is forced by the officers to return to his home. This begins Zhivago’s inner search for a balance between individualism and political stability, which he later echoes in his poetry. ...
Zhivago enlists his services as a doctor to help the soldiers during the World War I, and ends up assigned to a hospital where he meets Lara.
