with the possible exception of "Schindlers List", but even if Julie Andrews had floated down umbrella in fist at the gates of Auschwitz in that one I'm not entirely sure I would've been surprised...
A positive mine of formulaic sentimentalist clap trap IMHO
Strikes the same chord with me as most Spielberg films, light on substance, heavy on sentimentality and syrup
Yuck!
The only film I like Julie Andrews in is the original "Bedazzled" wiht Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, and then it's only her NAME...

lol, you mean you don't like it when she looks at herself in the mirror and says "cheeky'.that's the only film i know with her. and i really do believe it's fabulous. each song in the film i can watch over and over again in one sitting. i'm really just in awe of it.
it might be sentimental, but it works on me. what can i do? :)
