Many people say that this version is on Anna's side, desecrating Laoto's original work. I don't know where I can tell that this version is biased towards Anna? Karenin's character is relatively introverted and old-fashioned. Although too much attention to his career has affected his emotional investment in the family, it has to be said that Karenin's responsibility and loyalty to the family has always been there. And Anna's dissatisfaction with Karenin's subtleties is shown from the beginning of the film. After she was really with Voronsky, she was sensitive and neurotic, lost her family, lost her son and lost her previous status in the upper class, and she was afraid of losing the only Voronsky she had. These psychological troubles made her not Stop suspecting that Voronsky no longer loves her, and has a new love, and finally pushes himself into a desperate situation. Lao Tuo's original work itself recognized the mainstream consciousness. She did not respect Anna's so-called love betrayal of the family. At the end, Karenin played with Anna's children and Anne, indicating that Karenin forgave Anna. Anna's sentence before her death, god forgive me, also got my wish.
It's just that the second half was a little more rushed. After Anna's death, the only one who looked back was the only one that represented Vronsky, which was a bit confusing. After watching the whole drama, I didn't have any kind of emotion for anyone. This situation can be said that the film was too poorly shot and did not capture the hearts of the audience, but it can also be said that the performance of the famous book in two hours has to be touched. Heartstrings, let the audience have a mixed feeling, the possibility is not too big.
Speaking of the main actor, Keira is definitely a beauty, but it just doesn't fit the description of Anna in the original book. Jude Law has already captured the hearts of many female audiences. In this play, his appearance is an old-fashioned half-old man with a serious face. Although it does not fully match the description of Karenin in the original book, his temperament is still acceptable. Aaron, indeed, as soon as he appeared on the stage, people knew that he was a handsome guy who was liked by women, and he even had a little white face. I really couldn't tell that he was a 22-year-old guy, and his charm was quite great.
