Peggy Ashcroft is leading, not supporting
I thought the movie incredibly boring: I am sad for myself but I have never really been able to complete viewing any David Lean movie at a stretch. But whenever I did pay attention- Peggy Ashcroft was always onscreen. I though that at 76, with a supporting acting Oscar in hand for this role, she would be on the screen more sparsely. Then I noticed she won so many awards in the leading category: Best actress at the BAFTA and New York Film Critics Circle Awards.Do not you think she is actually leading in the movie? She has that major important scene near the end when she testifies for Dr. Aziz.
