Gandhi (6/8) Movie CLIP - It Is Time You Left (1982) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Gandhi (Ben Kingsley) argues that the people of India would prefer their own "bad" government to the "good" government of the British.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
It was Richard Attenborough's lifelong dream to bring the life story of Indian political and spiritual leader Mahatma Gandhi to the screen. When it finally reached fruition in 1982, the 188-minute, Oscar-winning Gandhi was one of the most exhaustively thorough biopics ever made. The film begins in the early part of the 20th century, when Mohandas K. Gandhi (Ben Kingsley), a British-trained lawyer, forsakes all worldly possessions to take up the cause of Indian independence. Faced with armed resistance from the British government, Gandhi adopts a policy of "passive resistance," endeavoring to win freedom for his people without resorting to bloodshed. In the horrendous "slaughter" sequence, more extras appear on screen than in any previous historical epic. The supporting cast includes Candice Bergen as photographer Margaret Bourke-White, Athol Fugard as General Smuts, John Gielgud as Lord Irwin, John Mills as the viceroy, Martin Sheen as Walker, Trevor Howard as Judge Broomfield, and, in a tiny part as a street bully, star-to-be Daniel Day-Lewis. Gandhi won eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Director.

Portraying an Indian, a Sikh, a Persian and an Arabian in different films? The only actor I know capable of playing characters of different ethniticies with the best of acting is Sir Ben Kingsley right there😏

[jorgelorenzo]

I love the entire movie but this clip of Gandhi telling the British government its time for you to leave is my favorite!!

[tiagombg]

Props to Nero, a good friend until the end. Sadly, today's India was not what Gandhi expected.

[LOEKASH]

"You don't think we're just going to walk out of India"
"Yes, in the end you will walk out"

I don't know why, but that unapologetic response really sticks with me.

0:57 Sir John Mills serious quality acting to show the utter embarrassment of the idiotic comment that preceded this.

Gandhi was the inspiration of Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela that believes in non-violence and peace for all people
