    There is a strong sense of familiarity with many of the scenes, music and dialogue, probably a little from the movie channel, but the film is worth watching again in its entirety. I think because this is not a documentary, I didn't maintain a neutral attitude. In fact, Valya's final outburst showed the attitude of the film. Those disputes were not what Tolstoy wanted. So far - even though we are ordinary - what a blessing it is to have a soul mate, even if there is a...

    Grandma Helen Mirren is really charming. Taking Tolstoy's influence on young people as a continuation of the "love" he has always advocated, the picture of the two flirting with one old and one young is really interesting. The whole story is peaceful and soothing without lack of interest, and it does not appear to be rambling. The director did not make it into a great eulogy. The film is more like a well-packaged essay...

    A rather boring film, in which Tolstoy's followers' distorted understanding of his beliefs caused the fuse of all subsequent tragedies. What I felt in the whole film was just an ordinary family ethics drama, noisy for property, and both sides sent Tolstoy to the west together with different love for Tolstoy. Boring, boring, I thought this film would tell a twisted and great biography, but that's...

    The most precious things are those that we can truly feel, such as love, such as mutual care and companionship. If an idealist asks us to give up these and look after the welfare of mankind, he is undoubtedly...

    Tolstoy wants to realize his great love for mankind, and his wife Sophia wants to keep the love between husband and wife forever young. Who can judge the importance of others? Who is qualified to say so? Love is the only priceless every All kinds of love should be cherished, and there will be no regrets when you reach the end of...

    A third-person narration with a very strange focus, all based on the sophisticated acting of Helen and Christopher. Most people must be watching the gossip of the Tuo family believers. Who knew that the title of this film was actually love. The young couple was inexplicable, and the old couple made people cry. Freedom and love are such a big topic. . The director really dared to choose, I really don't know whether to praise boldness or naivety....

    Helen Mirren's performance is amazing! A mad wife, a helpless husband, and a "secretary" who looks at everything from an independent perspective make up this wonderful...

    I would rather give up the wisdom of superman, give up the admiration of thousands of people just for ordinary and true love. The subject matter is great, and the story is too dramatic. As a biographical film, there is no problem with the director's point of view, but the characterization (especially the "villain") is quite...

    "The Last Station": The bitter intersection of material pursuit and spiritual pursuit

    It is a detailed account of the last days of Tolstoy's later life based on what he saw and called Valentine, a faithful believer of Tolstoy. Tolstoy lived a comfortable and free life, but because of the conflict between his wife and his eldest disciple Chekov, his wife suspected that Chekov was...

The Last Station quotes

  • Valentin: Love and be loved. That's the only reality there is in the world.

    Masha: He said that?

    Valentin: Yes, Tolstoy said it, but l'm saying it.

  • Leo Tolstoy: "Your youth and your desire for happiness reminds me cruelly of my age and the impossibility of happiness for me." When I was courting Sofya, she was so young and pure, it seemed impossible that I'd ever have her. I didn't want to tell her how I felt and I wanted to tell her nothing else. So I wrote down a string of letters and asked her if she could decipher them. She looked completely confused, thinking it was a game or... I gave her one clue. The firs two Y's, I said, stand for "your youth" and then the most miraculous thing happened. She simply spoke the phrase, my phrase as if she had read my mind. In that moment, we both knew we would always be together. For those first years, we were incredibly happy, terrifyingly happy.
