We watched it when it first came out - the soviet authorities thought it painted the West in bad enough light... and then at least once more.Any time I see it listed, I have that nasty burning desire to watch it again... which I usually suppress - but last night my wife set the trap for me, and I fell for it. :)
To say we watched it with great pleasure would be an understatement - we enjoyed every long second of it. And long those seconds are, indeed.
If someone has not seen it yet - take a look, you are in for a great treat.
Those familiar with that gem should put it on your list of things to enjoy once again.
And... to answer the question... well, definitely one of the best films ever made.
