Bored St Petersburg dandy Evgeny Onegin inherits his uncle's estate and decamps to the countryside. There he meets a neighbouring landowner, the young poet Vladimir Lensky, and through him the Larin family: widowed mother and daughters Tatyana and Olga. Naive Lensky is engaged to flighty Olga but Tatyana, who is deep, is drawn to Onegin and writes him a declaration of love.
At Tatyana's name-day party Onegin rejects her and flirts with Olga, which infuriates Lensky. They quarrel and Lensky challenges him to a duel. Lensky misses and Onegin shoots his opponent dead. A horrified Tatyana comes to visit him but he has left. Tatyana's mother introduces her into society and she marries a prince. Six years later, Onegin returns from his wanderings and is captivated by Tatyana's beauty and distinction. He now writes her a passionate letter.

Though she still loves him she remains true to her husband. Review Onegin opens with a sequence of startling beauty of a horse-drawn carriage crossing a vast expanse of snow. It is perhaps the major distinction of first-feature director Martha Fiennes' film to have made the settings of this story - the melancholy birch groves; the country estates with their contrasting interiors (the Larins' house bright and lived in, Onegin's romantically bereft); the splendour of imperial St Petersburg; a scene of people skating on a frozen river - so consistently enthralling, a triumph of cinematography, lighting and production design. Fiennes wears her background in commercials and music videos lightly - Onegin is much more visually restrained than Mumu, the version of the Turgenev story directed last year by the Russian commercials director Yuri Grymov. This film is also uniformly well acted, with Liv Tyler compelling as the brooding Tatyana, her still demeanour somehow suggestive of the dark passions swirling beneath the surface. Lena Headey is equally persuasive as the shallow, impetuous Olga, so physically like her sister and so emotionally different. There is a hilarious turn from Simon McBurney as the girls' oleaginous French tutor, and a memorable vignette from Irene Worth as the society grande dame Princess Alina.
Executive producer Ralph Fiennes in the title role and Toby Stephens as Lensky also give thoughtful performances but both, alas, are about ten years too old for the parts they play. This renders Onegin precociously racked and seedy at the start, though it makes Fiennes persuasive in the (over-elaborated) concluding episodes.

Lensky, however, is 18 in Pushkin's original and having him played by a noticeably older actor makes all his poetic petulance and hypersensitivity risible and exasperating without the saving grace of extreme youth.
