(British, 1999, 106 minutes, color, 35mm) Directed by Martha Fiennes. Cast: Ralph Fiennes..... Evgeny Onegin Liv Tyler..... Tatyana Larina. In the opulent St. Petersburg of the Empire period, Eugene Onegin is a jaded but dashing aristocrat - a man often lacking in empathy, who suffers from.
This is a very good film overall. Having grown up in Russia and being, as we would say here, `a great Pushkin's fan';-), I was caught between curiosity and caution when deciding whether I should even rent this film. Then I saw Ralph Fiennes name and thought that it could not be all that bad.so curiosity won.
I was pleasantly surprised that the film is fairly faithful to the original. Not completely, of course, but when I think about horrible mutilations other filmmakers perform on marvelous works of literature, I'm very grateful that the producers of `Onegin' read the poem very well and chose scenes and changed some of them with care. I won't talk a lot about beauty of scenes in the film: it's a pleasure to watch. Here are some of the things I didn't like. First of all I was a little disappointed by the film's interiors.
Several of them look very natural (some of the room's in Larin's and Onegin's houses). Others (like Petersburg palaces) more than anything resemble theatrical decorations. I don't think this was intentional, since the overall scenery is very realistic. Another objection is the lovemaking scene. I don't think it belongs or was needed at all.
Was it just a due paid to modern filmmaking? Why not do Tatyana's dream instead (this is a meaningful symbolic scene in the poem, not filming it could hardly be an accidental decision, I would love to know what was the reason)? The third, kind of big problem is that married Tatyana is not clearly portrayed as the queen of Petersburg's society. This detail is very important for understanding of Onegin's character: a tragic figure who can only exist within the laws and decorations of high society - the very society he despises more than anything else. Tatyana, the queen of this society, a complete part of it and yet completely not involved with it, comfortably within and yet far above the chattering crowd - that very likely is the only thing Onegin can love. Unfortunately the question `am I noble enough for you now?' Which Tatyana throws at Onegin during the climax scene of the film, does not fully convey that understanding and is an oversimplification compared to the speech that Pushkin's Tatyana gives to her fallen and still loved hero.

Onegin UK/USA 1998 Reviewed by Julian Graffy Synopsis Our synopses give away the plot in full, including surprise twists. The early nineteenth century. Bored St Petersburg dandy Evgeny Onegin inherits his uncle's estate and decamps to the countryside. There he meets a neighbouring landowner, the young poet Vladimir Lensky, and through him the Larin family: widowed mother and daughters Tatyana and Olga.
Naive Lensky is engaged to flighty Olga but Tatyana, who is deep, is drawn to Onegin and writes him a declaration of love. At Tatyana's name-day party Onegin rejects her and flirts with Olga, which infuriates Lensky. They quarrel and Lensky challenges him to a duel.
Lensky misses and Onegin shoots his opponent dead. A horrified Tatyana comes to visit him but he has left. Tatyana's mother introduces her into society and she marries a prince. Six years later, Onegin returns from his wanderings and is captivated by Tatyana's beauty and distinction. He now writes her a passionate letter.
Though she still loves him she remains true to her husband. Review Onegin opens with a sequence of startling beauty of a horse-drawn carriage crossing a vast expanse of snow. It is perhaps the major distinction of first-feature director Martha Fiennes' film to have made the settings of this story - the melancholy birch groves; the country estates with their contrasting interiors (the Larins' house bright and lived in, Onegin's romantically bereft); the splendour of imperial St Petersburg; a scene of people skating on a frozen river - so consistently enthralling, a triumph of cinematography, lighting and production design.
Fiennes wears her background in commercials and music videos lightly - Onegin is much more visually restrained than Mumu, the version of the Turgenev story directed last year by the Russian commercials director Yuri Grymov. This film is also uniformly well acted, with Liv Tyler compelling as the brooding Tatyana, her still demeanour somehow suggestive of the dark passions swirling beneath the surface. Lena Headey is equally persuasive as the shallow, impetuous Olga, so physically like her sister and so emotionally different.
There is a hilarious turn from Simon McBurney as the girls' oleaginous French tutor, and a memorable vignette from Irene Worth as the society grande dame Princess Alina. Executive producer Ralph Fiennes in the title role and Toby Stephens as Lensky also give thoughtful performances but both, alas, are about ten years too old for the parts they play. This renders Onegin precociously racked and seedy at the start, though it makes Fiennes persuasive in the (over-elaborated) concluding episodes. Sql server 2000 standard edition download iso 7.
