Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I saw Sadat back in 1993. I was impressed with his skill as a politician, how he survived, though despised, under Gamal Abdel Nasser, when his peers were taken away one by one, and later as Egypt's leader as the first Arab nation in achieving the highly unpopular yet sorely needed peace with Israel.
This movie is a bit long (2 VHS). I would recommend to set aside at least 5 hrs with breaks to see it in one seating.
I feel the movie brings out what a true great politician is supposed to be: someone able to negotiate through difficult circumstances and great opposition, bidding his time to achieve a worthy goal.
I highly recommend this movie. It could even have a place in a college-level Political Science course!
P.S.: I wish they would reissue it as DVDs. It is a classic.
