Anna Karenina
Based on Leo Tolstoy’s unforgettable classic, the film brings the greatest love novel in world literature to the big screen. Anna Karenina’s (Keira Knightley) marriage to high-ranking St. Petersburg official Alexei Karenin (Jude Law) is shaken when Anna meets Count Vronsky (Aaron Taylor-Johnson). The lovers surrender to the whirlwinds of passion, but their happiness soon turns into a tragedy. The story is also a description of tsarist Russia in the 1870s and the state society, which shackles the participants of the triangle drama in its framework. The film was directed by Joe Wright.
