The CinePearl Take

Anna Karenina is a classic-era Russian film that blends romance and drama — expect a love story at its heart and grounded performances and personal stakes. Aleksandr Zarkhi directs and the script comes from Vasily Katanyan. Yury Yakovlev and Iya Savvina are among the leads. Made in Soviet Union, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring Russian-language films. Released in 1967, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 137 minutes, it is a comfortable evening's watch.
