"The Australian hailed it as supremely faithful and superbly scripted, while the New York Daily News described it as both romantic and tragic. Leo Tolstoy's masterpiece, adapted numerous times for film and television, has never received such meticulous care and attention to detail as in this lavish BBC production.
Airing first on Masterpiece Theatre in 1977, this definitive version has remained a beloved favorite among fans. Set in Imperial Russia during the 1870s, the epic tale explores themes of passion, betrayal, society, and the pursuit of happiness. Nicola Pagett, known for her role in Upstairs, Downstairs, delivers a captivating performance as Anna—a young, beautiful woman trapped in a loveless marriage with the much older and high-minded Karenin, portrayed by Eric Porter from The Forsyte Saga.
When Anna encounters the dashing Count Vronsky, played by Stuart Wilson from The Age of Innocence, on a Moscow train platform, she is unable to resist the pull of fate. With 10 luxurious episodes, this Emmy® nominated series for Outstanding Limited Series delves deep into all the intricate storylines and characters with the same depth and richness found in Tolstoy's impeccable masterpiece."
