Katia

After Marilyn, Natalie Portman, Jennifer Connelly, Carrie Fisher, it was her turn : I picked up this one to learn my classics and to see a young Romy. At only 21 but after the Sissy movies, she shows already a great talent, especially by managing to be sometimes tragically desperate and other times playful. It would be interesting to check the age gap with her old lover, just to see if this precious, royal love is similar to other shocking ones (Lolita for example !).

However, what i remember from the movie is that this Tsar was a sort of Lincoln and JFK in this old Russia : liberal, he wanted freedom and power for his people. For sure, his establishment was upset of his reforms so like a later company, a rebellious fringe inside the government helps the true rebels (terrorists) to get access and perform the assassination. It's the 1st time i heard this story of this brave and courageous state-man but it's not a surprise as for decades, we live under the Paxamericana law and everything outside is not considered as valuable ! Check the year of this production as there is indeed no new movies about him since 1959 !
