I wanted to like it, I really did!!!! I worship Vivien Leigh, but it was basically watching Scarlett O'Hara in Russia. Oh, and no Rhett Butler.
Considering the movie technology that time had i would have to say that Anna Karenina was a poorly made movie. The movie didn't catch any of the dark scandelous atmosphere the book brought and it was a big disapointment. The only good thing about the whole movie was Vivien Leigh'...( read more)
this movie was great...she was kind of a disterbed women she just packed up and left her husband who was more than willing to forgive her and take her back when she thought she was dieing and then when she got well just left her husband and her son to be with her lover...her husb...( read more)
leigh's anna has gotten some hard knocks because of garbo's double success with the role. her anna is different and this film is a sumptuous setting for it.
