Doctor Zhivago Blu Ray – Omar Sharif, Julie Christie 

A peerless filmmaker of substance and scale David Lean directs Boris Pasternak’s tumultuous tale of Russia divided by war and hearts torn by love. Epic images abound: revolution in the streets an infantry charge into no-man’s-land the train ride to the Urals an icebound dacha. Omar Sharif plays the title role Julie Christie is his haunting long-time love Lara and both are caught up in the tidal wave of history. Hauntingly scored by Maurice Jarre (who earned one of the film’s five Academy Awards) and full of indelible performances Doctor Zhivago is a moviemaking wonder.
