Helen Mirren and Christopher Plummer give tour de force performances in this period drama about the last years of Tolstoy’s life. More war than peace, the year is 1910 and the ailing Tolstoy and his legacy are at stake. On one side is his loyal disciple, Paul Giamatti and his followers who believe that Tolstoy’s literary works and their proceeds must be used for the benefit of the people. On the other side is Tolstoy’s feisty wife of 48 years, Helen Mirren, who is convinced that the family are being robbed of their inheritance. It seems that only Atonement’s James McAvoy, Tolstoy’s Private Secretary, can rise above the fractious factions. Get your ticket now for this razor sharp drama about two people who are still very much in love but who also drive each other crazy.
