anyone else have it and really enjoyed it? (i trust the opinions of pretty much anyone in this thread since they all like criterion  )

Well.... Liking Criterion or not..... This film is high on most critics lists, due to the nature of the Classic "Good Vs. Evil" story line, and the way it's been portrayed.....
I must admit.... although being one of the more famous cinematic masterpieces.... there are many films that I enjoy more than this, but I still consider it to be a must own due to it's importance......
Unlike "Gone With The Wind" not only do I feel it must be owned due to its importance..... I actually REALLY enjoy the film. (yes, I'll buy GWTW because everyone should own it...... but I find it very disconjointed at times)
EDIT:
I don't want to be misunderstood.... Although I enjoy many other films more than this, it's still easily in the top 100, and as far as what I consider "Great Films" it's in the top 15 or so.
