Thanks for the update. I see that one critic and two directors (out of 1,201 voters) selected Ryan's Daughter as one of the ten greatest films of all time in Sight & Sound poll (which is conducted once every ten years). That is indeed higher than I would have expected, and better than Lean's Doctor Zhivago (two votes) and A Passage to India and The Bridge on the River Kwai (one vote each), while Lean's Great Expectations got the same number of votes as Ryan's Daughter. Lawrence of Arabia, however, was selected by 31 voters, placing it solidly in the top 100, as opposed to the top 1,000 for Ryan's Daughter.
