About One Russian Summer
Based on Mikhail Lermontov's novel Vadim, this costume drama, set in Russia during the 1700s, chronicles the battle between a vengeful, anarchic peasant and the tyrannical landowner who killed his mother and father.
Directed by Antonio Calenda, One Russian Summer leans on a strong ensemble — Oliver Reed, Claudia Cardinale, John McEnery — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about history titles of 1973.
