Reviews
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.
