When my mother died I was a very young man. I had fallen in love with films when she and my beloved big sister took me to see Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs when I was only three years of age. The day after my mother was buried I went to see Dr Shivago to escape horrible reality. The beauty of the cinematography and in particular the gorgeous musical score eased my loneliness and pain. I have always loved this film like an old and comforting friend.
Allan, I know what you mean when you describe this movie. I saw this movie when it first came out when I was in 6th grade and did not really understand it. I saw it again when I was in college at age 16, studying Russian. It opened up the whole world for me. There it all was.... do this day, it is both haunting and familiar to me. I translated a chapter from the original Dr. Zhivago which was written by Boris Pasternak, a black market book in the Soviet Union, for my Russian final. Pasternak was awarded the Nobel piece prize in 1958 but had to decline it due to the Soviet pressure as it depicted the socialist revolution from 1905 to WW II.He passed away in 1960 and never had a chance to see his beautiful work of art or his poetry loved by so many. ♥️
There is that opening scene where his mother is being buried. The lid placed down and nailed shut. Pretty powerful and it's been decades since I last saw it. Also when supreme court chief justice John Roberts was asked what his favorite movie was during confirmation, he stated that it was Dr. Zhivago. Another interesting story is how the novel was smuggled out to the west during the soviet period.
@@musoangeloThe opening scene you speak of as well as the haunting lyrics of the theme song say it all in relationship to the incredible finality and sadness in the loss of those we love.
I'll speak to that... she was the perfect actress for this role with her expressive eyes and her ability to portray emotions so sensitively. She was perfect, as was Omar.
It's her beauty of course,but her eyes are so Beautiful in That last scene. Her beauty is so highlighted by such fine camera work. A master piece of a movie and good to this day. RIP Omar Sharif. Bless Julie Christie.🦌🕯
I was 14 when I first saw the movie. To this day - I truly believe that the crossfade from Yuri looking at the daffodil - to the sunlight on Lara's face in the library - has to be the most intensely beautiful poignant crossfade in the history of movies..... Absolutely stunning...... The entire movie is a masterpiece.
I just marvel at the actors' ability to express such primal emotions and feelings of grief, love and despair, without screaming, yelling, contorting their faces and it made the scenes so much more poignant.
Beautiful music score and breathtaking cinema photography, superb acting too. I saw this movie as a young guy in my twenties. Now I am nearing 78. It still moves me so much.
Wow! Did I write this and not remember? I'm 78 and saw this in the theater when it was released. For some reason this movie touched me so deeply I still can't listen to that theme without crying.
I watched this about 20 years ago in my late 30s, great movie. Could you guys help explain why the woman has to go back to the other old man, can't she just leave him if she and the doctor were so much in love ?
@Ron Radliff I am an Egyptian man, I do not speak English well, and I would like to read your comments, and I hope they are translated into Arabic, because I think it will be amazing 🌸🌹

In my 75 years, over 50 spent watching movies, I still feel this is the best movie I have ever seen in my life. Heart wrenching at times, exciting at times, maddening at times. The cinematography is stunning, the acting was wonderful, in my book, it's the number one movie of all time. My next favorite is Margin Call, because it doesn't need computer effects, and the acting was brilliant.
I just love Dr. Zhivago, in my book the "best " movie ever made was " On The Waterfront", Charlie, you're my brother, you should have protected me, I could have been somebody, instead I'm a bum................." I think best lines ever written!
I remember reading a comment (it no longer appears anywhere), saying that if there is someone who truly doesn't understand how Yuri could so desperately rush inside the house and smash the window to take a glimpse of the sled with Lara disappearing into the horizon - then that person is someone who has never been in love.
As a young man, I proudly took my Grandmother to the movies to see this film and always remember how nice that was and how outstanding this movie remains.
I watched this beautiful film in 1969 when I was 18. The music, the landscapes, two gorgeous actors and a story that many lovers have experienced in being separated by the times they lived in. They don't make films like that anymore!!
It was a cold winter's night in Kitimat 1972 that I first set my eyes on her Lara, I was 13 . We lived @ 32 Mallard Cres across the parking lot from the town movie theater. For some reason I decided to venture out into the cold night and make my way through the snow to the movie theater it was snowing hard and honestly the snow flakes were as big as silver dollars . It was an old glorious theater with red carpet and thick velvet seats it was so warm in the theater. My good friend Luigi Nicoli worked there and he always let me in for free. I slipped into the theater and found a nice cozy spot to watch this epic movie. I have to say I was simply shocked by the beauty of Lara. Not necessarily in a good way ,it was like something came into me . I was definitely impacted by this experience . My first serious girlfriend was a Norwegian and she looked very similar to Lara. About ten years ago I met an old prison chaplain at Starbucks early one morning and we were talking about old great movies and then Dr Zhivago came up and then he said Lara with a big smile nodding his head up and down slowly , I think her character or image had a strong effect on many men. God really made women beautiful.
It was my mother's favorite too. I didn't get to see the movie till after she passed, then I realized why she loved it so much. So sorry for your recent loss of your dear mother. 🌹
Fifty seven years ago I had read the novel Dr.Zivago of Boris Pasternak in the year 1965 and seen the film when I was 20 years old. I still remember this beautiful song. Lovely memories!
@@pookiecatblue In my unsolicited opinion, the book is a very difficult read. The movie screenplay does not follow the book per se. The ending of the book and character shifts are quite remarkable when compared to the movie. Having seen the movie numerous times on Sunday afternoons, I finally read the book 50 years after the movie was made to compare the two. I was amazed at how David Lean adapted the book into this marvelous love story along with Robert Bolt's screenplay. The movie is idealized. The book was harsh reality. I would suggest you read the book and understand too, that it is a translation from the Russian and then you can wonder at how this movie creation was made. It was pure genius. As a footnote to history, I recall how big an impact the book had on American society. I recall in 1965 taking a train from New York City to Elmira NY and many of the passengers were reading the hard copy book on that train. It was then the equivalent to the Harry Potter series of books in the new millennium taking the world by storm..
I watched this movie for the first time when I was 25 years old in 1984. I had often heard about it as a child. It's left a lasting impact in my life. Dr. Zivago and Gone With The Wind, forever the best movies of all time.
@@BillyLapTop I am born 1967 and my sister Katja 4 years after me. Our Dog was named Pascha. I heard my Dad once talk about Dr.Shiwago and I believe he was inspired from this movie to give the names Katja and Pascha. I wish I would have asked him as an Adult....but he is not anymore among us
@@BillyLapTopyour comment makes me smile. It took me about ten tries to actually get into the book. I don’t know if it was the circumstances or what that made the tenth try the ticket to success. I was in eastern Turkey at the time which has somewhat similar scenery to Russia and there was nothing else to read. Once I got into it I couldn’t wait for the evening to come so I could pick up where I left off. I ended up devouring it and then proceeded to re-read it once I was finished. And since then have re read it a number of times. I guess it made a profound impression on me. I disassociate the book from the movie, but I like both. Kudos to Lean for taking it on.
What a poignant scene...breaking the glass of the window to see his love ones riding away towards the horizon and completely fading away from his view...and then he bow his head accepting the sad reality that it may be the last glimpse he will have of her on this earth. Oh my God...simply unforgettable.
A killer of emotion. And he never did see them - only at the end, when he couldn't get off the streetcar and just . . . died. "Someday my love, there will be songs to sing, although the snow covers the hope of spring." A true Russian song.
One of the most poetic film ever. The scenery, the story, The beauty of the siberian winter is exceptional. David Lean is my favorite. His sensitivity is huge. All his films are exceptional..
I have seen this movie many times. Being originally from former Soviet Union, my family, my parents, loved that movie. This theme is the best and most classic. I was asked to play it at some events when I was DJing. I listened to it numerous times and too many to mention. It is a beautiful melody, but also the movie, the classic, it is just absolutely incredible. Loved everything about it and of course, the music.
A masterpiece of cinema. Won 5 Oscar awards, surely deserved more. Amazing and Clean Actors: Omar Sharif and Julie Christie, as well as the others. Beautiful song by Maurice Jarre, Lara theme. Deserves to be in the Top 10!
Omar Sharif was incredibly handsome, particularly as Yuri Zhivago, and I am back dreaming again. Listenning to the music makes me want to watch the movie all over again for the 20th time, NEVER want to let it go.
The most God awful scene was when after many years after this he sees Lara from a bus, and as he rushes off the bus to try to flag her down walking of him he has a massive heart attack, dies and she doesn't even know it. Oh did I cry as you scream out turn around. My favorite movie, this and somewhere in time.
God Julie Christie is such beautiful woman & still is. Saw a photo of her not too many years ago & she still has that beauty. Also there is gratefulness too. I saw her in film from a Thomas Hardy tale: I think it was "Far from the Madding Crowd"; beautiful in that too! Aah Julie you wrenched my heart out when I saw Zhivago. What beauty. PJS
@@petersmith9077 , I think the same of Julie Christie. She was a stunningly beautiful woman. I would rate her level of beauty as a rarity. Maybe one of the top 10 most attractive women I can think of no matter in person, print, television, film, or video.
Each time I look at it I get tears into my eyes and when I hear the music of Maurice Jarre I could cry on this Theme, this so melancholic I’ve got no words to say ❤️
This just popped up on my feed to my delight. I haven't seen this film in years-- time to watch it again. Omar Shariff and Julie Christie are stunningly gorgeous and love Lara's Theme.
I was 20 when I first watched this movie and had fallen in love with Julie Christie. To this day, I can't forget her beautiful face becoming golden and ethereal by sunlight.
have seen this movie in its entirity 47 times! it created my love of daffodils ...and of Julie Christie!!It This movie did what great movies are intended to do. David Lean was a master!
This was my FAVORITE MOVIE for yrs and yrs. It still is. Now in 2023 I see little things that look a bit dated, but not much. It is such a masterpiece. Listening to the music alone fills me with such emotion.
This is my all time fav movie. Everytime it came on tv my mom & i would watch it... It came out the year i was born and havent stopped watching kt yet... Thanks for this scene upload!
My late husband & I watched this movie about 10 years ago on TV. When it was over several hours had passed. We had been mesmerized, time flew. That is the mark of a great movie. Have seen it many times. Love to watch it every couple of years.
The scene at the end as Yuri runs through the now cold, empty, and frozen house to symbolise the end of a warm and happy love story is utterly heartbreaking 💔 💔💔💔
My late mother took me to see this when I was 6. I still thank her for it because I had my first experience with an 'adult' movie and I loved it. I had a mature interest in movies at a young age
I can't find any fault with this masterpiece: acting, music, cinematography, script and directing. It will never be repeated. Thank you so much to everybody who contributed to this unique production. I have lived, worked and loved in the USSR. This brings back so many wonderful memories.
One of my top movies. I'm depressed for days after watching this movie. When a story takes you through a character's lifetime you become deeply absorbed in what the person is experiencing, especially with a tragic end. David Lean's expansive panoramic scenes are unmatched still today as well as the lovely theme song.
Doctor Jivago was the very first film that allowed me to discover that Cinema can be ART... Whenever I watch it, I have the very same goose pimples that I experience in front of or during any great painting, sculpture or musical masterpiece. It is one of the very few stories where the film beats the novel... it is truly unforgettable in every respect!
Maurice Jarre - one of my all time fave movie score composers. Up there with John Williams (my personal favorite), John Barry, Jerry Goldsmith and Henry Mancini. I have a friend called Lara - her parents loved this masterpiece, as did I.
This movie for me, is the most memorable love story of all time. The acting and of course the music. It would be great if Utube would show it. I’m sure it would impact everyone who hasn’t seen it and for those that have, a wonderful remembrance.
Una obra maestra de la cinematografía de todos los tiempos. Películas como esta ya no se volverán a realizar. Hoy el cine ha dejado de ser lo que en tiempos pasados fue: "el séptimo arte".
Un des meilleurs films d' amour de tous les temps (histoire, décors paysages somptueux, acteurs au top, musique ....) qu' on peut revoir plusieurs fois dans une vie tellement il est beau. D' ailleurs il a été plusieurs fois récompensé par le cinéma à l'époque.
Happy Birthday Omar Sharif! You were such a good actor! But you will always be Doctor Zhivago to me! You were so good in the role and I really love this film Such romance! Such history! The music touches every being in my soul! They don't make films like this anymore. They don't make actors like you anymore either. You are so missed.
Sorry to spoil the fun but Lara had an affair with her mother's Lover(a much older man) when she was a student. Then, despite the fact that Lara is married , she became Dr. Zhivago"s mistres even though she knew that Zhivago was married to Tonya and had two kids!
I always thought his wife in the movie was prettier and when he cheated I didn't like the movie anymore, and I was just a kid when I saw this movie on the big screen
@@glendavis3257 (: You learned life early on......!!!!! Sometimes, the heart can be stronger than the mind!!!!! Life doesn't always turn out the way we think it should!!!!! All we can do is try to live a decent life!!!!!
Best acting performance, performed by one of the most beautiful and emotional actress, with the best music. Nothing compares to you, Julie Lara Christie
Najbolji, najlepši film koji sam IKAD gledao u davna, davna vremena kada se u filmu uživalo u tami bioskopa najbolji glumci, muzika, priroda, scenario SVE!
@singer吳冬 Because he is not Jewish. Have you noticed how Hollywood played their games in the past 50+ years? Unless you are Jew (or switched your religion to Judaism, such as Michael Jackson, Liz Tailor etc.) you have no chance in Hollywood. Even today (2019)
This song was my dear husband's favorite and he always used to sing it. I will always think of him especially when I hear this lovely song. My dear love passed away on the 29th May this year and I miss him so much A Oosthuizen South Africa
The most beautiful film I have ever seen
Se rodó en España.
simply magic from a great actor
Possibly the saddest film I have ever seen.

So sorry!
It is a genuine reality of emotion unparalleled. After so many years I always long to live a life like that.
I wish I could find a way to watch this movie (without renting or buying it)

Sorry.
I hope you are able to view the movie with less tears and more beautiful memories. You've obviously experienced true love in your life. ❤
Julie Christie haunted me with her beauty in this movie.
The most tragic love story I have ever seen in the movies! The beauty of Julie Christie in this is unspeakable.
Also Romeo & Juliet of many years ago 👌

It was a cold winter's night in Kitimat 1972 that I first set my eyes on her Lara, I was 13 .
We lived @ 32 Mallard Cres across the parking lot from the town movie theater.
For some reason I decided to venture out into the cold night and make my way through the snow to the movie theater it was snowing hard and honestly the snow flakes were as big as silver dollars .
It was an old glorious theater with red carpet and thick velvet seats it was so warm in the theater.
My good friend Luigi Nicoli worked there and he always let me in for free.
I slipped into the theater and found a nice cozy spot to watch this epic movie.
I have to say I was simply shocked by the beauty of Lara.
Not necessarily in a good way ,it was like something came into me .
I was definitely impacted by this experience .
My first serious girlfriend was a Norwegian and she looked very similar to Lara.
About ten years ago I met an old prison chaplain at Starbucks early one morning and we were talking about old great movies and then Dr Zhivago came up and then he said Lara with a big smile nodding his head up and down slowly , I think her character or image had a strong effect on many men.
God really made women beautiful.
Ya know I never ever get tired of this movie!! So romantic and so sad and full of life. Just love it!
Zhivago is the english way of writing the russian word "живого", which means alive. Just thought I should mention it, Sir.
The book is absolutely wonderful too, fyi. Love them both.
Will always be the saddest and most beautiful film of all time and who could ever be as gorgeous as Omar Sharif.. those soulful eyes. 🥲🩷🩷🩷
The music stayed with me for all of life.

Proud to be Egyptian because pf Sharif and 1 of the 7 wonders :)
Mr. Sharif and I share the same birthday - April 10. My all-time favourite actor.
Did you know Omar Sharif's son played a young Yuri when his mother was laid to rest in the cemetery.
He had one of those faces that could be a lot of things. He could easily have been a Russian, especially from Georgia.
What a poignant scene...breaking the glass of the window to see his love ones riding away towards the horizon and completely fading away from his view...and then he bow his head accepting the sad reality that it may be the last glimpse he will have of her on this earth.

It's a shame that it did not win the 1965 best picture. Although Sound of Musc was also a great film, my vote goes to Dr Zhivago.
Omar Sharif was incredibly handsome, particularly as Yuri Zhivago, and I am back dreaming again. Listenning to the music makes me want to watch the movie all over again for the 20th time, NEVER want to let it go.
He made a lot of ladies and young girls fall in love with him...he was beautiful.
The most God awful scene was when after many years after this he sees Lara from a bus, and as he rushes off the bus to try to flag her down walking of him he has a massive heart attack, dies and she doesn't even know it. Oh did I cry as you scream out turn around. My favorite movie, this and somewhere in time.
Yes, Somewhere in Time… another beautiful movie but heartbreaking. One of my all time favorites!
God Julie Christie is such beautiful woman & still is. Saw a photo of her not too many years ago & she still has that beauty. Also there is gratefulness too. I saw her in film from a Thomas Hardy tale: I think it was "Far from the Madding Crowd"; beautiful in that too! Aah Julie you wrenched my heart out when I saw Zhivago. What beauty. PJS
I once had a lover who said to me as we parted for what we knew would maybe forever "I will be your Zhivago."
@@petersmith9077 , I think the same of Julie Christie. She was a stunningly beautiful woman. I would rate her level of beauty as a rarity. Maybe one of the top 10 most attractive women I can think of no matter in person, print, television, film, or video.
I love Somewhere In Time! Haven't seen Dr. Zhivago yet
Fantastic movie. I watch it once a year. Julie and Omar was the perfect match for this epic story.
And now, Hollywood can only produce movies like Barbie. What an embarassment
Each time I look at it I get tears into my eyes and when I hear the music of Maurice Jarre I could cry on this Theme, this so melancholic I’ve got no words to say ❤️
I loved it so much as a young girl, that my father bought me a music box with "Lara's Song"
A blast of talent from the Russian Pasternak. I actually fell for Geraldine Chaplin more than most people. All these years it brings back the Romance!
To me still one of the best movies of all time...
Actors, music and atmosphere.
And oh yes... good direction and camerawork!
Truly a wonderful yet sad in a lot of ways movie. Julie Christie was magnificent!!
Mesmerizingly Beautiful. Hard for anyone who loves films to forget this one.
Omar Sharif as Yuri Zhivago...no man could ever appear more handsome. ...Beautiful movie on endless levels. Nothing since compares.
This just popped up on my feed to my delight. I haven't seen this film in years-- time to watch it again. Omar Shariff and Julie Christie are stunningly gorgeous and love Lara's Theme.
I was 20 when I first watched this movie and had fallen in love with Julie Christie. To this day, I can't forget her beautiful face becoming golden and ethereal by sunlight.
Desh: I'm guessing about 3 million 20 year olds had fallen in love with Julie Christie.
Immagino che un po' tutti si siano innamorati di Julie Christie
What a movie .i was a young teenager when i saw this it was brand new ..im still in love with lara...going on 63..
I loved that movie. Love the music. Love the vinter scenes and love the sommer scenes.
have seen this movie in its entirity 47 times! it created my love of daffodils ...and of Julie Christie!!It This movie did what great movies are intended to do. David Lean was a master!
He knew how to be in awe with natural beauty of life. Which was what made him a poet
This was my FAVORITE MOVIE for yrs and yrs. It still is. Now in 2023 I see little things that look a bit dated, but not much. It is such a masterpiece. Listening to the music alone fills me with such emotion.
This is my all time fav movie. Everytime it came on tv my mom & i would watch it... It came out the year i was born and havent stopped watching kt yet... Thanks for this scene upload!
As close to faultless as any movie could be.An absolute masterpiece.
Outstanding one 👏 👌 👍 🙌
Great film , Magnificent Omar and uncommonly beautiful Lara Christie.
Tribute to Boris Pasternack, the great writer.
No sé nada del autor pero......lo ha bordado
Bought the book when I was 12, 52 yrs ago. Still have it
This film has an outstanding cast, excellent soundtrack and is a tragic epic in every sense of the word. IMO one of the top 10 films ever made.
Best war time love story I've ever seen on the screen. Tragic and beautiful! Stunning scenery, acting, and soundtrack,also.
Fantastic movie. I first saw it in high school in the '60s. Still a great movie.
One of my favorite epic movies. Breathtakingly beautiful down to every scene and actor. This is an especially poignant scene. Love it. 🥰
Julie Christie was stunning. You cannot take your eyes off her in every scene she's in. Still looks great in her 80s.
My late husband & I watched this movie about 10 years ago on TV. When it was over several hours had passed. We had been mesmerized, time flew. That is the mark of a great movie. Have seen it many times. Love to watch it every couple of years.
The scene at the end as Yuri runs through the now cold, empty, and frozen house to symbolise the end of a warm and happy love story is utterly heartbreaking 💔 💔💔💔
It gets the tears flowing every time I see this movie, one of my all time favorites!
My late mother took me to see this when I was 6. I still thank her for it because I had my first experience with an 'adult' movie and I loved it. I had a mature interest in movies at a young age
I can't find any fault with this masterpiece: acting, music, cinematography, script and directing. It will never be repeated. Thank you so much to everybody who contributed to this unique production. I have lived, worked and loved in the USSR. This brings back so many wonderful memories.
One of my top movies. I'm depressed for days after watching this movie. When a story takes you through a character's lifetime you become deeply absorbed in what the person is experiencing, especially with a tragic end. David Lean's expansive panoramic scenes are unmatched still today as well as the lovely theme song.
Stunning film, beautifully photographed, with a depressing and haunting finale
A true masterpiece of a film. The soundtrack is beautifully written telling the story of war, love, and Lara......
NOTHING can replace the gorgeousness and flawless execution of this TIMELESS film!! RIP to the gorgeous Omar Sharif, and blessings to Julie Christie.
Brilliant film and the acting was sublime. The ending gets me every time.
Great performance by J. CHRISTIE❤👍🏻
Never look more compelling and beautiful.Her finest film.
Doctor Jivago was the very first film that allowed me to discover that Cinema can be ART...
Whenever I watch it, I have the very same goose pimples that I experience in front of or during any great painting, sculpture or musical masterpiece. It is one of the very few stories where the film beats the novel... it is truly unforgettable in every respect!
Arguably the best film ever made. Great plot, great story line, incredibly great photography and incredibly great music and direction.
Maurice Jarre - one of my all time fave movie score composers. Up there with John Williams (my personal favorite), John Barry, Jerry Goldsmith and Henry Mancini. I have a friend called Lara - her parents loved this masterpiece, as did I.
One of my favorite movies of all times. I can watch it over and over again. The scenery and music is amazing.
The best cinematic film I have ever seen,best music,best actress,and acter, beauty sense of nature.
(: It's my favorite movie......I think
I was only 14 when I first saw it!!!!!
It is a masterpiece, but Lean made two glaring errors. The very British behaviour of Russians, and the very obviously 1960s hairstyles.
Best film of all time.
(: Very true!!!!!....... ☺
@@sammyvh11
(: Yes....It definitely has to be!!!!!.....☺
even after all these years seeing that scene tears my heart out.
My favorite movie of all time!!! I named my daughter Sasha too, out of no where! Julie and Omar are flawless!
The music and stunning cinematography are what turn this from a love triangle flick to a cinema classic
This movie for me, is the most memorable love story of all time. The acting and of course the music. It would be great if Utube would show it. I’m sure it would impact everyone who hasn’t seen it and for those that have, a wonderful remembrance.
I saw this movie when it first came out. I still think it was one of the greatest movie I have ever seen. Seeing this scene gave me goosebumps.
The entire movie was the best scene. This is my favorite movie of all time. TCM playing it this Sunday, March 5th.♥️
Merci Bechir, tu es grand
Una obra maestra de la cinematografía de todos los tiempos. Películas como esta ya no se volverán a realizar. Hoy el cine ha dejado de ser lo que en tiempos pasados fue: "el séptimo arte".
Si, es verdad!!
Un des meilleurs films d' amour de tous les temps (histoire, décors paysages somptueux, acteurs au top, musique ....) qu' on peut revoir plusieurs fois dans une vie tellement il est beau. D' ailleurs il a été plusieurs fois récompensé par le cinéma à l'époque.
Happy Birthday Omar Sharif! You were such a good actor! But you will always be Doctor Zhivago to me! You were so good in the role and I really love this film Such romance! Such history! The music touches every being in my soul! They don't make films like this anymore. They don't make actors like you anymore either. You are so missed.
I was named Lara after this Theme... I am about to watch the movie as I now am curious why my parents were so in love with it
I hope the movie, and its tremendous effect on many people, gave you the answer to your curiosity ☺️
I was Named Larisa after my mom watched this movie...
Me too! I was born in 1982 and my mom loved the movie so much she named me Lara!
Sorry to spoil the fun but Lara had an affair with her mother's Lover(a much older man) when she was a student. Then, despite the fact that Lara is married , she became Dr. Zhivago"s mistres even though she knew that Zhivago was married to Tonya and had two kids!
@AbrahamUtrera-t7p True but still a great movie..
Lara in the form of Julie Christie is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.
I always thought his wife in the movie was prettier and when he cheated I didn't like the movie anymore, and I was just a kid when I saw this movie on the big screen
@glen davis I agree, his wife is prettier then lara
Omar Sharif in this movie is the most gorgeous human male I have ever seen.
@@kalikakhaira5481
(: They were both pretty!!!!!..... ☺
@@glendavis3257
(: You learned life early on......!!!!!
Sometimes, the heart can be stronger than the mind!!!!! Life doesn't always turn out the way we think it should!!!!! All we can do is try to live a decent life!!!!!
Probably the best, and certainly the most musically and scenically beautiful film ever made!
Best acting performance, performed by one of the most beautiful and emotional actress, with the best music. Nothing compares to you, Julie Lara Christie
Saw this same post on everybody hurts by the Corrs. So sorry for your loss 🙏
I remember my mom and dad seeing this in cinema scope. Mom absolutely loved this movie. She bought the vinyl record and I played it over and over.
Omar Sharif, magnificent actor.
Yes. Rest in peace, Omar.
YES.REMEMBER MACANA's GOLD.
He WAS Dr. Zhivago like Julie Christie WAS Lara
There are hundreds of u-tube videos of Lara theme. It's the best. Thanks Maurice Jare, David Lane, Omar, Julie....
Beautiful Movie, Great Star's, Fantastic Theme, Great Memories.....
Najbolji, najlepši film koji sam IKAD gledao u davna, davna vremena kada se u filmu uživalo u tami bioskopa najbolji glumci, muzika, priroda, scenario SVE!
Omar wasn't even nominated for best actor with such heartbreaking performance. Hollywood prejudice!!!
@singer吳冬
Because he is not Jewish.
Have you noticed how Hollywood played their games in the past 50+ years?
Unless you are Jew (or switched your religion to Judaism, such as Michael Jackson, Liz Tailor etc.) you have no chance in Hollywood. Even today (2019)
Omar Sharif had been nominated 3 yrs earlier as supporting actor for "Lawrence of Arabia."
Super Hero - is antisemitism one of your super powers, Super Hero?
@Tahira Gibson
Sorry but I’m not, but sometimes truth hurts, isn’t it?
@@tahiragibson6407 Brainwashed sheeple.
Unmatched cinemaphotography and acting. A beloved favorite I could watch over and over...❤
I love Gone with the wind and Dr. Zhivago. Both masterpieces, for all times. 2024
What a Magnificent film, I love the love story between Dr Zivago and Lara.
This song was my dear husband's favorite and he always used to sing it. I will always think of him especially when I hear this lovely song. My dear love passed away on the 29th May this year and I miss him so much A Oosthuizen South Africa
