Aroview: The classic, passionate Russian poem by Pushkin is lavished with whole-hearted sympathy in this adaptation, the dir.'s brother Ralph Fiennes providing star-quality in the title role. 19th century Russian squire Fiennes initially rejects the attentions of Liv Tyler only to realise years later, and too late, his youthful mistake. A compelling love story with splendid imagery to savour. Music by another Fiennes sibling (Magnus).
