"Ah, then it's a gift." What a subtle beautiful closing to the harrowing epic goings-on the previous 3 hours. Mellows and haunts me every viewing.

Thank you Arthur, as much as I love most of the films Lean made I have always found Zhivago an overblown dud.
It is a gorgeous production of course, and indeed a very nice score, but as a whole film it just does not work well. I would say it is Lean's worst film.

In that case I'd love to get your response to my review of that one, to see if my criticisms seem sound to you.

Yes, I agree with your review, which is very well written too.
Very sound
