Doctor Zhivago 2002




A man torn between two women amid the chaos and brutality of the Russian Revolution
One of the worlds most famous love stories and half a century of Russian history come to life in this adaptation of Pasternaks masterpiece by celebrated screenwriter Andrew Davies (Bridget Joness Diary, Pride and Prejudice). War and revolution bring poet and physician Yury Zhivago (Hans Matheson) together with the beautiful Lara (Keira Knightley), his muse and all-consuming passion. But both are haunted--Yury by guilt over his betrayal of Tonya, his beloved wife, and Lara by fear of Komarovsky (Sam Neill), the powerful man who means to have her any way he can.
