Gandhi (1982) (9/10)

List item

Gandhi follows the story of, you guessed it, the influential nonviolent freedom fighter Mohandas (later Mahatma) Gandhi. The film starts from Gandhi’s tragic assassination at the hands of a Hindu nationalist, before the narrative timetravels to his young adult days as a lawyer in South Africa and spans his return to India and his anti-colonial campaign. The film was hugely successful, receiving a whopping eleven academy award nominations and it released to broadly positive receptions both at home and overseas.
