Writer-director Michael Hoffman (SOAPDISH, RESTORATION) adapts Jay arini*s novel into a thrilling comic-dramatic account of Leo Tolstoy\u2019s final months. This Tolstoy, played with quiet authority by Christopher Plummer, has renounced writing fiction, built a school to educate peasants, and leads a movement whose guiding principles are abolishing private property, pacifism, and sexual chastity. His new secretary (the charming James McAvoy) becomes the comic man-in-the-middle between two formidable opponents scheming for control of his manuscripts\u00a0and money. Chertkov (Paul Giamatti), a rigid true believer, wants to spread Tolstoyan doctrines around the world, a would-be Paul to the Master*s Jesus. And Sofya (Helen Mirren), Tolstoy\u2019s wife of 48 years and the mother of his 13 children, proved her dedication by copying \u201aWar and Peace\u2018 six times\u2026 by hand!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
