One would be doing themselves a disservice by watching this in lieu of reading the 20min story. The latter is packed with so much more nuance than this film could ever even hope to convey
@AbecedariusRex The banker is played by Robert Prosky. Probably best known for his work on "Hill Street Blues",but he's done a ton of stuff and is usually very good. Glad you enjoyed the post.
Thanks for posting this. Great short story and a good rendition here. How does it change the story that the actors are older? (in Checkov's work they're young men) I forget the actor's name who plays the banker but he's quite good. He plays the judge in Redford's "The Natural".
The lawyer was supposed to be a 25-year-old.
Farhana Hanani exactly..😂
Far Hanani yeah here he looks like a 60 yr old
Exactly. He got out by the time he reached 40. 😂😂

Khyal Dave, to answer your question, I am assuming that he praises their knowledge, but rejects them, because they are material objects.
Is there any full movie edition on net
In the story, firstly the prisoner says, "Your books have given me wisdom." and then says, "I despise your books." Quite confusing, huh!!
