This was the movie where I first fell in love with Ben Kingsley . . . an amazing amazing actor. (Yes I meant to write amazing twice.)
The movie is about Mahatma Gandhi, the leader of the Indian Independence Movement when Britain ruled India. He is most famously known for his use of non-violent civil disobedience to further the Indian cause.
An amazing movie about a venerated man starring the perfect actor. A must watch.
