Weekly Volcano's Review

Roger Ebert on February 24th, 2010

Favorite This Like this Movie? You can Favorite it on your Profile.

On his country estate, in his last year, Leo Tolstoy (Christopher Plummer) rules over a household of intrigues.  His wife, Sofya (Helen Mirren), is in fierce battle with his disciple Chertkov (Paul Giamatti), who thinks the count should leave his estate to the Russian people and not to Sofya and their 13 children.  Chertkov hires young Valentin (James McAvoy) to act as Tolstoy's private secretary and a spy, but Valentin is seduced by a nubile Tolstoyian (Kerry Condon) and broadens his views about the great man.  Sort of a Merchant-Ivory picture with loud instead of quiet lust. - Three stars
