Very likely the best film ever made. Even if it is in black and white. I have seen it at least 20 times, know virtually all the dialogue, and it seems as fresh as ever every time I see it. Clift's performance is probably the best ever by a male actor and the fact that the oscar that year went to William Holden for "Stalag 17" proved conclusively to me that "life is not fair."
