The Last Station

In browsing old entries, I came across a list of movies I wanted to watch, and have finally watched 'The Last Station' within the last few days. I enjoyed it. It centres around a Tolstoyan who's hired to be Leo's personal secretary, the commune near Tolstoy's estate, and Tolstoy's relationship with his wife. I found it very interesting because many people revered Tolstoy like a god, but the movie shows him as a normal human being.

There is a little bit of nudity (boobs), definitely not a family movie, but if you're interested in learning a bit about who Tolstoy was, I'd recommend it!
