I confess, I have not completely read or watched "Anna Karenina", because it is so sad. With this cast I may have to change that.
I loved sophie Marceau as Anna K. and i am not sure if Keira is a good choice for this role... ? But nevertheless i like her very much and will see the new version
AK is one of my most favorite books, and this cast has some of my most favorite actors. I don't think Keira has quite the presence a role like Anna demands, and would never have cast McFayden as Stiva, but I'll have to see it anyhow. I love the book too much. :)
