Anton Chekhov’s The Duel
Blu-Ray Review: ‘Anton Chekhov’s The Duel’ Does Justice to Source Material
Submitted by mattmovieman on May 27, 2011 - 3:36pmCHICAGO – I suspect there is a segment of the moviegoing population that will take one look at the title, “Anton Chekhov’s The Duel,” and flee in the other direction, most likely into “The Hangover Part II.” Chekhov is the sort of literary genius whose work is quoted by writers aiming to prove their own level of intellectualism. Yet his work is too good to be merely confined in art houses.
