5.0 out of 5 stars Great movie, needs a good remaster to blu-ray, June 9, 2009

By	S. Shephard "Esteban" (Anchorage, Alaska USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This movie is one of those gems that was trampled upon by people expecting a verbatim adaptation of the book and left in the dust. It's actually surprising how many Camus fans (of which I'm one) actually seemed to take personal offense at this movie. Anyway, ignore them and appreciate this movie as a work of art in its own right, merely standing on the shoulders of Camus.
Probably unknown to most people now, it could really stand to be revived on blu-ray. Criterion, are you listening?
I think where this film succeeds is with the characters. Their complexity is well portrayed by strong actors. Robert Duvall, William Hurt, Raul Julia, Sandrine Bonnaire - all great actors with strong performances here. The film isn't pretentious with dialogue, and the emotions range from still to unleashed, from joy and hope to reflective sorrow. The human experience and conflicts are on display here and portrayed very well.
