Tolstoy and Presbyterians 2

Between the beautiful weather and the "Anna Karenina", there isn't much room for the Presbyterian controversy just now.

There is a new Anna Karenina movie coming out this November, starring Keira Knightley.   I am reading bits and pieces of this lengthy novel to my husband, who is providing appropriate historical context and questions.  For one thing he wondered how Tolstoy's family fared during the revolution.  Then he told me some things about Lenin and his links to Germany, which I have already forgotten. I think I may have him take me out to see the new movie.  Wouldn't that be romantic?

Here is the trailer for the movie plus several teaser clips:  http://video.search.yahoo.com/search/video?p=anna+karenina
