Lara

Doctor Zhivago (Russian) is a 1965 epic drama-romance-war film directed by David Lean and loosely based on the famous novel of the same name by Boris Pasternak. It has remained popular for decades, and as of 2010 is the eighth highest grossing film of all time in the United States, adjusted for inflation. The film takes place mostly during 1912-1923, against a backdropp of World War I, the Russian Revolution and Russian Civil War, as the regime of Tsar Nicholas II is overthrown and the Soviet Union established. A narrative framing device, set in the late 1940s to early 1950s, involves KGB Lieutenant General Yevgraf Andreyevich Zhivago (Alec Guinness) searching for the illegitimate child of his half brother, doctor Yuri Andreyevich Zhivago (Omar Sharif) , and his mistress Larissa ('Lara') Antipova (Julie Christie) . Yevgraf believes a young woman working on a dam project, Tonya Komarovskaya (Rita Tushingham) may be his niece, and tells her the story of her father's life. As the Mother Volga river runs to the Caspian Sea My soul haunts Lara in the film Doctor Zhivago! The biggest part of Russia, Siberia The surface always frozen like Lara's heart? I hear the fine theme song of Lara And I search the missing book in my trunk Boris Pasternak's longest prose. Russian Alphabet is called Cyrillic A man named Cyril is said to have invented it? Anyway I think of Lenin, Trotsky, Dostoevsky Tolstoy, Turgenev, Gogol and Pushkin. And when I woke up in the morning I found my grandson's picture book 'Russia' beside me And I spoke to my Son-in-law How about a Vodka tonight? Spasiba! nimal dunuhinga
