So, there have been a bunch of screen adaptations of Anna Karenina, but here's one with a unique spin. Watch this "featurette" clip for an upcoming adaptation....
...right. I'm not quite sure what to make of that, either.
Anyway, in case you've not done so already, try to read the book. I'm linking my favorite translation--by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky (very cool story--husband and wife translating team--he's American, she's Russian--they work together and come up with these incredibly easy to read, engaging translations of what can otherwise be kinda' daunting undertakings--their work on Dostoyevsky is really remarkable). The film debuts on November 9.
So.... Yep--starting today, that's plenty of time to tackle a Russian classic!
