If you loved Ryan's Daughter, try A Passage to India

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by David Lean, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to Ryan's Daughter, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What A Passage to India is

Gone with the Wind meets The Remains of the Day. An Englishwoman and an Indian doctor form a bond in British colonial India. Judy Davis carries this period drama.
