Why??
Review date: 2008-10-20 Rating: 10 out of 10
I remember watching this on TV, Christmas 1985, and was completly taken by it. Far and away the best thing Kingsley has done. I was fortunate enough to have taped it and over the years watched it more times than I can remember. Everything about it is superb, the cast, the settings, the dialogue the costumes, the period feel, everything. A year or two later we were treated to "Precious Bane" staring the superb Janet McTeer.Whenever I come onto Amazon I always look for these two films. WHY have they not been available. WHY when S.Marner is finally available do we have we to wait another year before we can get a copy. WHY is tosh like "Heroes" and "Torchwood" available on DVD when the series is still showing on TV???

A beautifully acted cracking yarn. The first film that I saw Ben Kingsley in and was rivited by his work. Unsung film.
A film both moving and well told. Mr Kingsley is remembered for Ghandi but I will always think of him as Silas Marner.
