The Prisoner Of Zenda
The Prisoner Of Zenda for me is the best movie of 1952. Wonderful inspiration to young actors and directors. I still remember the first time I saw The Prisoner Of Zenda. I expected average crap movie at most, I received amazing movie. I am a huge fan of Richard Thorpe and this movie was his best work of last years. Skills of actors are just unimaginable, especially Stewart Granger's play. When a director makes movie and all of their scenes so influential that you don't want to pick your favorites, you know it is just a good, quality film. I'm sure that The Prisoner Of Zenda will continue to live for next 100 years. Enjoy watching.
