| Doctor Zhivago | comment |
While there have been several screen adaptations of Boris Pasternak's eponymous 1957 novel, this one—scripted by Robert Bolt, directed by David Lean, and released in 1965—is probably the most famous.It's a generation-spanning epic about The Russian Revolution, starring Omar Sharif as Yuri Zhivago, a doctor meeting the challenges of a World Gone Mad, with Julie Christie as The Ingenue Lara, the object of his affections, and Rod Steiger as Komarovsky. Other cast members include Geraldine Chaplin, Alec Guinness, Tom Courtenay, Siobhán McKenna, Rita Tushingham, Klaus Kinski, and Ralph Richardson. Ingrid Pitt, who would go on to become a legendary star of Hammer Horror movies, makes her film debut in a bit part.With its epic scope, vivid performances, and grand Scenery Porn vistas, this is widely regarded as one of Lean's greatest films. Nominated for ten Academy Awards, it won for Best Adapted Screenplay (Bolt), Cinematography (Freddie Young), Original Score (Maurice Jarre), Art Direction, and Costume Design.Doctor Zhivago was also heralded as the last of MGM's great Epic Movies, as they announced even during production; the studio simply no longer had the money to finance these vast vista works with thousands of extras and a cast full of stars, and the next movie they made was for one-twentieth of this one's cost. Still, the expense seems to have been worth it; when adjusted for inflation, Zhivago is currently the ninth-highest-grossing film of all time; according to BoxOfficeMojo.com, its $111 million domestic take in 1965note as well as subsequent rereleases comes out to nearly a billion dollars in the 2020s. | |

| Doctor Zhivago / int_1282bf4f | comment |
No Celebrities Were Harmed: Strelnikov, the Red Army officer, shares a lot of similarities to Leon Trotsky, who was leader of the Red Army during the Russian Civil War (most notably, travelling up and down the front on an armored train, and getting purged as the Bolsheviks consolidate power). | |

Bittersweet Ending: Downer Ending, depending how you look at it. The downer ending is that Yuri and Lara die apart, with Yuri especially dying of a heart attack chasing after a woman he thinks is Lara, and Lara eventually dying in one of Stalin's camps. The bittersweet ending is that Yuri's brother finds Yuri's daughter years later, and they may be able to make a connection. | |

Honor Before Reason: Yuri chooses to stay behind at Varykino rather than accept Komarovsky's help and go with Lara and Katya. This leads to him never seeing Lara or his family again and developing a starvation-related heart ailment that kills him prematurely. It may also have denied him a chance to protect Lara and her children and keep them from being separated in battle, something Komarovsky fails to do. | |

Mathematician's Answer: Tonya is prone to these when being quizzed by Yevgraf. When asked what her mother's name was, Tanya says "Mummy." When asked to describe her, Tonya says she was "big", because Tonya was small. | |

| Doctor Zhivago / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: The film compresses the time span and excises a good amount of the story's historical and cultural background. Especially evident in Yuri's service with the Red partisans, much more prominent in the novel than the film. | |

The Mutiny: Yevgraf recounts that he joined up in 1914 for the express purpose of eventually inciting one. Eventually he leads three whole battalions in desertion. Later, Russian soldiers start going home in huge numbers, at one point dragging a general off his horse and beating him to death. | |

One Degree of Separation: The story is packed full of odd coincidences.

And before that, when Yuri and his family were headed east on the train, they just happen to run into Pasha, in his new identity as Strelnikov. | |

After pointedly reminding Dr. Zhivago that he's "been listening to rumormongers, Comrade. There is no typhus in our city," the delegate shortly thereafter has Zhivago pulled from work to discreetly diagnose an ill man in the house. He must have learned it from his medical professor.

Love Triangle: Lara's fiancé Pasha and his foil Komarovsky both love Lara and despise each other. Then Yuri falls in love with Lara at first sight during a medical visit. Lara breaks it off with Komarovsky when he rapes her and she shoots him in revenge. During World War I Pasha goes MIA, and doesn't come home afterward because he's joined the civil war, and Yuri has an affair with Lara. Simultaneous to all of this, Yuri and Tonya are in love and eventually marry and have children. This is all a bit simplified from the novel. | |

War Is Hell: The movie depicts World War I in its whole horrible glory, lingering on several shots of frozen corpses as Yevgraf narrates how every soldier was living through hell and was thrown into the Germans' fire as Cannon Fodder. The main battle scene features a suicidal charge across No Man's Land which few soldiers manage to survive. The cripples who returned from the war with a missing limbs are deemed to be lucky. Then the Russian Civil War is also depicted as a horrible conflict where both Whites and Reds commit atrocities on the locals while showing no mercy towards each other. | |
