Three Sisters
AroView: Three sisters stuck in the Russian provinces pine for distant Moscow in this comprehensively faithful adaptation of Anton Chekhov’s famous 19th century play.
Capturing the playwright’s bittersweet perception of the compromises and hopes of life with conservative filming, director Laurence Olivier draws out several nuanced performances from his great cast. The subdued colours of Geoffrey Unsworth’s photography are a visual delight.
