Friday Night Film Series


Anna Karenina

February 22, 2013

This rendering of author Leo Tolstoy's classic stars Greta Garbo as the married Russian woman who falls in love and runs off with dashing soldier Vronsky (Frederic March). Upon Anna's return, her icy and distant husband (Basil Rathbone) prevents her from seeing her son. To make matters worse, Vronsky deserts her to join a regiment heading to the Turkish-Serbian war. Garbo is unforgettable. Her final scene is haunting.
