★★★★★ · All time favourite · Ian Milton · 2024-02-25

This is my favourite film of all time. It captures a thrilling atmosphere and it has been colourised but has lost none of its original appeal. A triumph of cinematic art and I am pleased that someone cares enough to have archved this and tastefully processed it to make it even more watchable.
