About Carla…
I’m 24 years old and have always been in love with History. I love it so much that I graduated in History/Archaeology and am currently working in a museum, next to objects used by kings and queens. On my free time, I like to read and watch movies set in any time of history – from Pre-History until yesterday. ;)

Rating: 4/5Finally I got to see this movie! I say finally because I have long wished to see it and unfortunately or there wasn’t a copy available in the library or by while zapping through channels I would always caught it in the middle, which is never pleasant. After 10 years of catching the movie in the middle, it seemed I wasn’t destined to see it. But now it’s seen and I can’t wait to read the book, which I imagine is even better.
The story, which begins in 1880, is told by Konstantin “Kostya” Levin, who dwells on his existential problems and his attempt to find love, search shared by Anna Karenina, married to a wealthy aristocrat older than her, and whose life is dedicated to her son. Arriving in Moscow, she gets to knows the Count Vronsky, who until then had his attention turned to the princess “Kitty” Shcherbatsky also the target of Levin’s heart and who had been rejected because of Vronsky, and both of their lives change radically.
