Then how can you say it's the "finest film, period"?Why not somehting like... in my limited expereince it's my favorite film.
Not knocking the film, I love it, but what you wrote struck me as a contradiction.

...in their collective wisdom, what film does it all better:1. in music
2. in photography
3. in story-telling
4. in acting
5. in pure human warmth
6. in the merging of era-in-history with timelessness
YES, you're right: I've seen fewer movies/films than most. It's hard for me to even regard film as an art form (the medium seems too gimicky and gadget-oriented and too 'team-filled' i.e., too many cooks involved in the "production"). HENCE, my surprise that ONE film stands out.
NO, you're partially wrong, however: I've seen several (but not many many) of the classics and greats and I've been severely 'under-whelmed'.
I'll give your criticism half-validity.
