Anna Karenina(2017)

The plot of Karen Shakhnazarov’s ‘Anna Karenina: Vronsky's Story’ is, meanwhile, told from Vronsky’s point of view; for the first time, the drama is focused on him – it’s he who is losing his love. However, there’s a serious discrepancy between this and Tolstoy: The director added another detail – Vronsky remembers his beloved many years later, while fighting in Manchuria in 1904 during the Russo-Japanese War.

Elizaveta Boyarskaya played the role of Karenina, while the role of Vronsky was played by Maxim Matveev, who is married to the actress in real life.
