What else can I say -- I love this movie! Maybe it was because I watched it during my impressionable years as a teenager but I just love everything about it. It has a brilliant eccentric scientist (one of my favorite character types for a movie) a villian who really isn't so bad in the end, and it has comedy, drama, sadness, romance, despair and overwhelming joy all rolled up into one excellent movie. This movie made Peter O'Toole my favorite actor! If you haven't seen it before do yourself a favor. I still get tears in my eyes at the end and I have watched this movie probably 50 times!
