Anna Karenina

THESE TWO LOVED...and the world stood aghast!

Directed by Clarence Brown

Produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer

A sweeping 19th-century tragedy about passion and social constraint, where a woman's romantic awakening collides fatally with the rigid codes of Imperial Russian society.

In Imperial Russia, Anna, wife of the officer Karenin, goes to Moscow to visit her brother. On the way, she meets charming cavalry officer Vronsky, to whom she's immediately attracted. But in St. Petersburg’s high society, a relationship like this could destroy a woman’s reputation.
