“The English Patient won several Oscars, but honestly I thought it was kind of boring overall. I never really understood how the two main characters wound up being attracted to each other. Neither seemed to have much personality.”
“Edit: To clarify, most of the problem seemed to lie with the script, not the actors. I usually really enjoy movies with Ralph Fiennes, but it wasn’t at all clear what his character’s appeal was here. Same with Kristen Scott Thomas’ character- not apparent what either or husband or her lover sees in her.”
