Ryan's Daughter - David Lean

David Lean creates masterpiece cinema. "Ryan's Daughter" (1970) is no exception to the rule. Complimented by a riveting (and ironic) score by Maurice Jarre, this film shows that Lean has a keen eye for capturing beautiful, natural images. You can tell he took his time with capturing Ireland's true oceanic beauty.

One critique, it had a slow set up, but the second half of the film was very moving. Gripped me!

4 out 5 Netflix. 8.5 on 10-scale.
