CGiii Comment

Of very minor CGiii interest - depending on how you interpret the relationship between Tolstoy and Chertkov.

Mrs Tolstoy was convinced that they were bumming each other.

Hoffman has managed to make a fine film - how unlike him - a great cast can help a director tremendously - here's the proof.
