Eugene Onegin - Pyotr Tchaikovsky
(the classical music piece, not the poem-novel ;))
I just read that book and then watched the movie, now I'm going to have to go seek out the music. And I've always loved Tchaikovsky so I'm anxious to hear it now that you've put the bug in my ear.Quote:

I often listen to it several times in a row, wanting to make sure I catch every change and can chart the progression of the song. Seriously...you should give this song a listen, I don't think you'd be disappointed. :thumbs_up
Indeed - excellent book and excellent symphonic piece! :nod:Quote:

I wrote down your suggestion of Dry The Rain by the Beta Band, and will certainly look into it. Thanks! :thumbs_up
And as for now: What's The Frequency, Kenneth - REM
The one I saw had Ralph Fiennes as Eugene and Liv Tyler as Tatyana. I seriously don't care for Liv Tyler but I guess she wasn't all that bad and Ralph Fiennes is always excellent. As far as it staying close to the book, I do think it did a fairly good job, although it was even more brooding and dark and sloooooow moving, not just in plot but in action. I have never seen a group of actors move so slowly in all my life, it was very odd and at times distracting, although not nearly as distracting as Ralph's hair! I think it's worth seeing as long as you aren't expecting miracles. And I do understand your hesitance, I too, have many issues with literary masterpieces being made into movie, they never get it right. ;)Quote:

And I forgot to mention, Mono, I hope you enjoy Dry the Rain, I do so love to share my enthusiasm for good songs. :)
Ralph Fiennes once had a full head of hair??? :eek:Quote:

It wasn't just a full head of hair, it was fancy hair. That picture doesn't really do it justice though because the sides aren't curling quite as magnificently as they normally do but it gives you a rough idea. ;)Quote:
