This film is based off Leo Tolstoy's novel, of the same title. Anna Karenina meets Count Alexei Kirillovich Vronsky and has an affair with him. She is forced to choose what is proper in society, to remain with her husband Count Alexei Alexandrovich, or follow her heart.
This film was directed by Joe Wright. This film operates under the assumption that audiences have read and understand all the various parts of the novel its based off, so there are a lot of small points that go unexplained. Now the styling choice is imaginative, and it keeps the film from becoming to slow paced. It was enjoyable, but somewhat unusual, to go from feeling like your watching a stage production to live action. The costume design is also lovely to look at. However, the styling choice takes away from explaining these complex characters choices and the lessons they learn. Keira Knightley played the role of Anna Karenina. She was great in her emotional role of a woman lost in love. Aaron Taylor-Johnson played the role of Count Alexei Kirillovich Vronsky. He was a great supporting actor for Knightly, and he also gave the film its lively romantic nature. Jude Law played the role of Count Alexei Alexandrovich. He was a great supporting actor for Knightly.
I give this film 3 out of 5 stars! It is a decent romantic story that uses cinematography to its story.
