Shes very charming, isnt she?

Poor girl. Her husband refuses

to travel with her. He says hes too busy.

Well, Countess, youve met

your son, I've met my brother.

Pardon me for not recognizing you,

but I dont think weve ever met before.

Anna Arkadyevna

has a little boy of 8, Seriozha.

Theyve never been

parted before, and shes fretting

at having left him behind. Really,

Anna, you cant expect never to leave him.

Well, good-bye, countess.

Good-bye, my dear.

Very charming.

Horrible.

Hes dead.

It is a bad omen.

Nonsense. Youve come.

That is the chief thing.

You cannot imagine how much

I'm counting on you.

Stiva, I know youre to blame.

Dont deny it.

9 years... my children...

all to be thrown away

because of a...

momentary lapse.

True. It was not nice

that she was the

childrens governess.

What can I do?

Drop me at your house and

go bacK to the court.

Is this Grisha?

How hes grown!

How happy and well

you look.

He told me.

He met me at

the station.

Grisha, go and find Tanya.

Of course shes young,

and shes pretty.

My youth and looks are gone,

taken by him and

his children.

I hate him.

I dont want to speak up

for him,

but what is the best thing to do

in this dreadful situation, Dolly?

Stiva is ashamed.

But he made love to her.

I dont excuse him, but...

thats how it is.

Anna's mission to heal the rift

in her brother's family

was not unliKe my own desire

to restore the ties with my brother,

so desperate were we both

to feel love.

Good evening.

Excuse me. Is Nikolai Levin here?

There is a gentleman here,

Nikolai Dmitrich.

Nikolai.

Kostya.

What is it?

What do you want?

I dont want anything.

I came to see you.

Youre my brother.

This woman is my lifes

companion.

Maria Nikolayevna.

I took her out of a brothel.

But anyone who wants

to know me must respect her, too.

All right, then, Masha,

supper for 3, then.

With vodka and wine.

Your brother drinks too much.

Take no notice of her.

Shes a whore.

You are a gentleman.

Nikolai, dont drink.

Leave me a...

Leave me alone.

I'll beat you.

How about supper, then?

Have a drink.

Tell me how you do it.

Why arent you married yet?

Oh, no luck.

I think there must be something

about me that repels people.

Why?

For me, everythings over.

For you...

Come back with me...

to the country.

For the sake of your health.

No. Too much to do.

I've become a communist.

Nikolai, the police.

Theyll persecute me like they do

anyone whos not a scoundrel.

Here.

You want to fell

magnanimous...

feel righteous.

I'll let you have that

satisfaction.

Don t think too badly

of me, Kostya.

Mama, please.

Princess Kitty, may I ask you

for the quadrille?
