talent, this I can tell from the choices he made, what he omitted.
Man, that Elzabeta actress (the mom of the babe with which Petyr was infatuated) is a stunning actress. She says more with her eyes than anyone in memory.

That actress - Inna Churikova - is indeed a very special talent, she is extremely respected in Russia.

BTW - Todorovsky did not direct this film, he wrote the original novel. But he made many excellent movies.

  directing.
  I understand his son, Valeri, was the producer.
  I couldn't find any evidence to the contrary?
  I've sent the discs back to Netflix so I can't check the credits.
  Are you sure about the direction?
  Also, both Todorovskys have directed many films.
  Which of the two are you strongly recommending?

    I believe the director's name is Andrei Kavun.
    
    Among the Todorovsky's films, I would try to get these:
    
    War-Time Romance
    
    Through Main Street with an Orchestra
    
    Encore, Once More Encore!
    
    What a Wonderful Game
    
    Among his son's films:
    
    The Country of Deaf People
    
    The Lover
    
    Did you see Gorod Zero?
    - Thanks, I'll keep out an eye. Unfortunately, Net, my sole source, - tinear 08:51:52 11/25/07 (0)
      only has The Cadets and The Lover.
      I still have lots of other Russian films on my list, however.
      Incidentally, in the latest issue of The New Yorker, there's a very interesting article about Tolstoy, his great novel, and a comparison of several translations. Informative, well-written, and thought-provoking.
