Anna Karenina (Keira Knightley) žije v lehce unaveném manželství s vysokým vládním úředníkem (Jude Law), s nímž má malého syna, a její pověst mezi petrohradskou smetánkou nemůže být lepší. Během cesty do Moskvy, kam jede navštívit bratra (Matthew Macfadyen), potká hraběnku Vronskou a na moskevském nástupišti se seznámí i s jejím synem (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), mladým ambiciózním důstojníkem.

DVD film Anna Karenina 1. díl [1967]. Český dabing. České titulky. Dolby Digital. Nejlepší filmová adaptace Tolstého románu o ženě v carském Rusku 19. století. Anna Karenina je krásná a inteligentní žena žijící ve spokojeném manželství. Její muž je bohatý, takže Anna netrpí materiálním nedostatkem – přesto se však začíná nudit. Při návštěvě rodiny svého bratra poznává mladého, ale lehkomyslného hraběte Vronského. Ten má sice známost s dívkou Kitty, ale elegantní Anna ho zcela okouzlí. Situace se vyhrotí, když Anna s Vronským otěhotní – teď už se o všem dozvídá i její muž a chce se s ní dát rozvést. Rozvodem by ale Anna přišla o syna Sergeje, kterého neskonale miluje, a proto odmítá. Po porodu však manžela i syna opouští a odjíždí s Vronským. Štěstí ale nedosáhne – časem se s milencem odcizují a Anně se navíc silně stýská po synovi. Lidé v jejím okolí ji vesměs odsuzují a Anna se cítí čím dál tím více osamělá. Duševně zcela vyčerpaná a zlomená žena nakonec vidí jediné východisko ve smrti a vrhá se pod vlak.

Love... it means too much to me, far more than you can understand.At its simplest, Anna Karenina is a love story. It is a portrait of a beautiful and intelligent woman whose passionate love for a handsome officer sweeps aside all other ties - to her marriage and to the network of relationships and moral values that bind the society around her. The love affair of Anna and Vronsky is played out alongside the developing romance of Kitty and Levin, and in the character of Levin, closely based on Tolstoy himself, the search for happiness takes on a deeper philosophical significance. One of the greatest novels ever written, Anna Karenina combines penetrating psychological insight with an encyclopedic depiction of Russian life in the 1870s. The novel takes us from high society St Petersburg to the threshing fields on Levin''s estate, with unforgettable scenes at a Moscow ballroom, the skating rink, a race course, a railway station. It creates an intricate labyrinth of connections that is profoundly satisfying, and deeply moving. Rosamund Bartlett''s translation conveys Tolstoy''s precision of meaning and emotional accuracy in an English version that is highly readable and stylistically faithful. Like her acclaimed biography of Tolstoy, it is vivid, nuanced, and compelling.

Leo Tolstoy's most personal novel, Anna Karenina scrutinizes fundamental ethical and theological questions through the tragic story of its eponymous heroine. Anna is desperately pursuing a good, "moral" life, standing for honesty and sincerity. Passion drives her to adultery, and this flies in the face of the corrupt Russian bourgeoisie. Meanwhile, the aristocrat Konstantin Levin is struggling to reconcile reason with passion, espousing a Christian anarchism that Tolstoy himself believed in.Acclaimed by critics and readers alike, Anna Karenina presents a poignant blend of realism and lyricism that makes it one of the most perfect, enduring novels of all time.

Translated by Louise and Aylmer Maude. Introduction and Notes by E.B. Greenwood, University of Kent.Anna Karenina is one of the most loved and memorable heroines of literature. Her overwhelming charm dominates a novel of unparalleled richness and density.Tolstoy considered this book to be his first real attempt at a novel form, and it addresses the very nature of society at all levels,- of destiny, death, human relationships and the irreconcilable contradictions of existence. It ends tragically, and there is much that evokes despair, yet set beside this is an abounding joy in life''s many ephemeral pleasures, and a profusion of comic relief.

Kniha - autor Lev Nikolajevič Tolstoj, 880 stran, česky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Všechny šťastné rodiny jsou si podobné, každá nešťastná rodina je nešťastná po svém. Výmluvný postřeh giganta ruského realistického románu Lva Nikolajeviče Tolstého otevírá jedno z nejslavnějších psychologických děl v dějinách literatury, v němž si spisovatel po monumentální fresce Vojna a mír dopřál komornější zápletku a dalekosáhlým přetvořením látek módních romancí vyjádřil odpor k pseudomorálce „vyšších kruhů“. Inspirován skutečnou událostí, kdy se spořádaně vyhlížející mladá dáma vrhla pod kola nákladního vlaku, vytvořil Tolstoj příběh o skandálním poklesku „dobře provdané“ krasavice, která je přinucena váhat mezi salonním životem v nelásce a přirozeným právem na štěstí. Vzplanutí choti carského hodnostáře k důstojníku Vronskému, jež spisovatel umně proplétá s osudy a krizemi dalších příbuzných a přátel, je pro Annu o to tragičtější, že na rozdíl od dobových mravokárců...
