Emil Lotenau's adaptation of Chekhov's short story about a passive magistrate whose unconsummated desire for a woodsman's daughter leads to a terrifying act of violence, official approval and attempted cover up. The film is related in flashback, as Lotenau deftly explores the judge's turpitude, and by larger extension, the corrupt pre-czarist culture. "So rich in its imagery, to watch [this film] is a fascinating, almost intoxicating experience" (Vincent Canby). With Galina Belyayeva and Oleg Yankovsky. Russian with English subtitles.
