The Seagull (1972)
(Chayka)
Country: USSR
Technical: col/scope 100m
Director: Yuli Karasik
Cast: Alla Demidova, Vladimir Chetverikov, Nikolai Plotnikov
Synopsis:
Romantic and artistic conflict between a fading actress, her playwright son, her novelist lover and an ingénue from a neighbouring estate to her brother's, where the action takes place.
Review:
Curiously uninvolving, though well-acted, version of the Chekhov play which never quite reaches the dramatic heights hoped for. Shot in customarily pink-tinted Sovcolor.
