Our take

The iconic beachside kiss between Burt Lancaster & Deborah Kerr is amongst the most renowned of movie images, and yet it’s only one of many sublime moments this film contains. An immaculate cast and a director in fine form rarely fail: From Here to Eternity stands as a peerless classic of its era.
