I can see there are issues with the hpl website. I am here reviewing the two-part version of Dr. Z with Keira Knightley. This was the first one I saw (i had hoped for the 1960s one first with Julie Christie and Omar Shariff, but drats, it failed to come in). What i have to say is that it is raw, heart-renching, and undeniably good. Some questionable matters with regards to Keira Knightley's clothes (didn't sculpt her body as the 1910s styles are supposed to). Thought there were a few too many and unnecessary sex scenes (not just betweeb Yuri and Lara but also Yuri and his wife, Tonia)...don't know why, my face kept burning up. Emotionally, i would have to say this BBC adaptation excels. I didn't just see the pain of marital infidelity and of extra-marital heartbreak, but also the coarse and brutal side of war, from Russia's perspective. Very good, but I do enjoy watching David Lean's motion picture.
