    CLIP DESCRIPTION:
    Strenlikov (Tom Courtenay) interrogates Dr. Yuri Zhivago (Omar Sharif).
    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    Based on the Nobel Prize-winning novel by Boris Pasternak, Doctor Zhivago covers the years prior to, during, and after the Russian Revolution, as seen through the eyes of poet/physician Yuri Zhivago (Omar Sharif). In the tradition of Russian novels, a multitude of characters and subplots intertwine within the film's 197 minutes (plus intermission). Zhivago is married to Tonya (Geraldine Chaplin), but carries on an affair with Lara (Julie Christie), who has been raped by ruthless politician Komarovsky (Rod Steiger). Meanwhile, Zhivago's half-brother Yevgraf (Alec Guinness) and the mysterious, revenge-seeking Strelnikoff (Tom Courteney) represent the "good" and "bad" elements of the Bolshevik revolution. Composer Maurice Jarre received one of Doctor Zhivago's five Oscars, with the others going to screenwriter Robert Bolt, cinematographer Freddie Young, art directors John Box and Terry Marsh, set decorator Dario Simoni, and costumer Phyllis Dalton. The best picture Oscar, however, went to The Sound of Music.

    • @monichat
      @monichat 11 месяцев назад +4

      Omar Sharif once said in an interview that he felt bad because for commercial reasons the script had been changed from the true spirit of Pasternak's book - In Doctor Zhivago (the book) the main character never says clearly whether he is for or against the Revolution. Like the author Boris Pasternak, Zhivago is sitting between two chairs.
      This applies to his relationships with women as well. After Lara left with Komarovsky he went back to Moscow where he lived with Marina and had 2 more daughters. Supposedly Lara was the great love of his life !!!!
      I have read Doctor Zhivago 20 + times, I know it almost by heart. Great litterature.

    At 2:15, you can see how insecure he is in his face. He re-emphasizes it when he says "the personal life is dead...for a man...with any manhood." Lara's affair with Komarovsky permanently undermined his masculinity. That's why he re-emphasizes the point. Beware of resentment.

      I don’t think he was resentful, he was just insecure. To him, due to his insecurity, he always thought that love was something which had to be earned, and so he kept pushing himself to achieve greatness no matter the cost. Which is tragic because we’d like to think meritocracy should prevail for everything except when it comes to love. Pasha’s only failure was refusing to believe that something as important as love could be something you randomly bump into, or something you might be entitled to. Instead he thought it had to be earned.

      Dr. Zhivago projected the early loss of his mother onto Lara. Director David Lean makes that clear when Lara's theme is played at a dramatic moment at his mother's funeral long before Lara ever appears in the film.

      There is a trolley scene early on in the film when both get on board but I don't think they see each other. Rather, director David Lean gives the trolley the sound of a loud electric spark that analogizes the combustible chemistry that will surface between Dr. Zhivago and Lara later on.

    Historically, he's correct. In times of revolution and civil war the private life of those most committed on both sides of the conflict take a back seat to the earth shattering events taking place. He's right. The American Revolution. The Civil War.
    The character, by the way, was a thinly veiled Leon Trotsky. The founder of the Red Army and famous for travelling from front to front (21 fronts stretching over thousands of miles) during the Russian Civil War in his armored train to motivate and lead the Red Army.
    At the time the book (1956) and movie came out (1965), Trotsky was a pariah in Soviet society. Mere mention of his name during the Great Terror of the 1930's meant a trip to a gulag.

    Strelnikov is Leon Trotsky ---commander of the Red Army during the civil war, 1917-1920. Trotski was famous for affecting a black leather coat and running around on an armoured train.
    He was Lenin's fair haired boy until Lenin's stroke, then Trotski faced Stalin as his enemy and scarcely ever won another significant political battle. Stalin had him cashiered from the Communist Party, expelled from Moscow and then from Russia altogether. Ultimately, Stalin had Trotsky assassinated in Mexico in 1940.
    Hundreds of thousands of people were executed by Stalin because they were thought to have had some connection to Trotsky or his ideas at some time.
    It didn't pay to get on Stalin's bad side.

    Great clip. Great movie. Important book. Burning the village because they sold horses to the Whites is the policy directed by then head of the Red Army Leon Trotsky. Red Terror. Had the Whites stolen the horses from the village Red Army policy was that the village still be burned. Several people I've known held the idea that Trotsky was 'the good Bolshevik' and 'if only' he had he gained power in the USSR, instead of Stalin, everything would've been better. At this point in the Russian Civil War, I don't think Stalin had committed mass murder; clearly Trotsky had.
    I've got a copy of the University of Michigan 'first' edition of Dr Zhivago (in Russian.) The U.S. Government paid for this printing. Copies of this edition were given to Soviet citizens at an international conference. They immediately started ripping off the covers and breaking the sections down so they could smuggle them back into the USSR. Trotsky burned villages, Stalin made the Gulag, crushed Hitler; Boris Pasternak wrote a book.... and David Lean made a movie.
