Rating:  - anna karenina with jacqueline bisset and Christopher Reeve and Paul Scofield
This is one of the best versions of this remarkable story. When is it coming on DVD? With Christopher Reeve, Jacqueline Bisset and Paul Scofield what could be a better cast. It is a engrossing film. Not to be missed...
Rating:  - Not one of the best versions
I felt that Jacqueline Bisset, as Anna Karenina, and Christopher Reeve, as Count Vronsky, were miscast. To me they did not appear to be passionate lovers willing to give up everything for each other. Anna Karenina is a very powerful story however this version seemed to lack the necessary intensity to make it believable. There seemed to be no real attraction on the screen between Anna and Count Vronsky. They gave the impression of reading a script. I thought the best performance in the movie was given ... Read More
Rating: - THE BEST ANNA KARENINA THAT IS AVAILABLE - BUT
This beautiful classic love story with its beautiful classic stars has been slashed almost beyond recognition. What is even more upsetting is this version of this movie in its original presentation was at least 2 hrs 18 mins. long. I know this to be true because I saw it on TV and taped it at that time.

It is too short for a great love epic ( the movie is only 94 minutes long) and the director should have not used too many scenes with trains. But this ... Read More

It is abeautiful epic of the classic love triangle. Tolstoy would have been very proud of this wonderful production. The ending is just as sad and dramatic as in the book. The actors are wonderful.But the movie is very short for such a great story (it is only about 94 minutes long) and the director might have been more wise not to include so many scenes with trains. All inall it is a great movie and I enjoyed it. But I cried for an hour because of the ending. It is the most beautiful Anna Karennia.Trust ... Read More
