In this introductory video, we'll lay out the criteria we'll be using to evaluate these adaptations and give you a glimpse of which versions we'll be reviewing. Here's a brief outline of the plot of Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina: Anna Karenina tells the story of two parallel love affairs in Russian high society.

Their passionate affair triggers a series of complex consequences, including societal judgment and personal turmoil. Meanwhile, another narrative thread follows the relationship between Levin, a wealthy landowner, and Kitty, a young woman initially infatuated with Vronsky. Levin's sincere love for Kitty sees them overcome obstacles and eventually marry, providing a stark contrast to Anna and Vronsky's turbulent romance.
