when i despaire, i remember that all through history, the way of truth and love has always won.
there have been tyrants and murders, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. think of it ,always.
"When I'm desperate, I remember that in history, only truth and love can win. There are many tyrants and villains in history, who may be invincible in the short term, but will eventually lose. Think about it. It will always be like this."
Einstein commented on Gandhi: "It may be difficult for future generations to believe that such a person has really appeared in the world." (Generations to come will scarcely believe that such a one as this walked the earth in flesh and blood.) He added: "I think Gandhi's views are the most brilliant of all the politicians of our time. We should work in the direction of his spirit: not by violence to our ends, but not by what you think The forces of evil are allied."
Ben Kingsley won the 1983 Academy Award for Best Actor. The most impressive place for Kingsley in the film is the quiet and profound nerve of Gandhi performed by Kingsley. When Gandhi stared at other people, this religious and sacred eyes deeply shocked me, and long shots were used many times in the film. It depicts Kingsley's splendid interpretation of the eyes.

    The smooth and natural editing, unpretentious narrative, sporadic soundtrack, and multiple seamless black-and-white news footage give the film a near-documentary realism. Ben Kingsley's performance is like Gandhi's reincarnation. No wonder it won an Oscar in one fell swoop. Actor. The film maintains an objective position as much as possible, and does not portray Gandhi as a high-profile figure. It lifts the weight lightly, allowing Gandhi's lofty thoughts to quietly flow into the hearts of the audience. (9.0/10)

    Even considering the myriad of political correctness in this film, it's an excellent film. Ben Kingsley is a superb actor

    Gen. Dyer: *Fire!*
