Our take
The film follows the life of Mahatma Gandhi, from his ejection from a whites only train compartment in 1893 to his role leading India's independence movement against the British Empire.
Why watch Richard Attenborough directed Ben Kingsley as Gandhi, and over 300,000 extras appeared, believed to be the most in any film.
