Excellent!!!
I really love russian novel by Leo Tolstoy "Anna Karenina". And TV adaptation made by BBC in 1978 is my favourite). Nicola Pagett is absolutely wonderful Anna. This TV adaptation is very very detailed, the whole novel on your screen. In this TV series I saw all characters from the novel, all locations and this is amasing). What about main characters---well, as I said early? Nicola Pagett playd wonderful Anna Karenina/ Her Anna is excellent! Vronsky played by Stuart Wilson and Alexey Karenin played by Eric Porter are literally from the pages of a book. And in this TV series has a very atmospheric and emotional music. The spirit of the 19th century is impeccably transmitted. What about DVD quality---well it's good)/ And this is great that this edition has subtitles and special features. I Love It). Thank you very much, dear Zavvi.)
