Seagull, The

“The Seagull, Anton Chekhov’s classic play about failed hopes and tangled attractions, is solid and satisfying in Michael Mayer’s intimate retelling for the screen.”~David D'Arcy, Screen International

Aroview: Luminous adaptation of Chekhov's 1896 play with Annette Bening as an ageing actress who contends with her insecurities when her younger lover falls for the ruthlessly ambitious Nina (Sairose Ronan). Set in various evocative upstate New York locations, and beautifully photographed.
