A review by barrymost

Written by barrymost on 2019-08-08

A Tale of Two Cities was the movie that introduced me to the wonderful Ronald Colman. It's one of my all-time favorite movies, and also one of the very, very few that can get me close to tears. That classic, unforgettable ending: "It's a far, far better thing I do than I've ever done. It's a far, far better rest I go to, than I've ever known." It's a beautiful story of love, redemption, and self-sacrifice, from Charles Dickens' timeless novel.

Would I recommend? Yes, without a second thought.
