Nicholas and Alexandra (1971)

£0.00


Country: GB
Technical: col/scope 189m
Director: Franklin J. Schaffner
Cast: Michael Jayston, Janet Suzman, Laurence Olivier, Tom Baker

Synopsis:

The story of the demise of the Romanov dynasty, including the Tsar's mismanagement of the economy and the Tsarina's infatuation with Rasputin, associated with the youngest child's haemophilia.

Review:

Schaffner certainly creates space for the characters to breathe, in this long account of recent events, long enough for audiences to ponder on their tragic implications. However, inevitably, it is dramatically uneven, and suffers from a collision of acting styles.
