"Vanya on 42nd Street" is a romance movie directed by Louis Malle, starring Brooke Smith and Julianne Moore.
The romance movie tells the story of the peaceful and regular life of a large family in a dilapidated village, disturbed by the visit of Sonja's father.
A large family in a dilapidated village, the male master Pan Ya and his niece Sanya depend on each other for life, and their life is peaceful and regular. This calm and regularity was disturbed by the visit of Sanya's father. Sonja's father came along with his wife, Yelena. Yalena was naturally beautiful and charming; Sanya's father considered himself a knowledgeable and arrogant professor. Pan Ya is fascinated by the beauty of Alena. This experimental film describes the process of Chekhov's novel "Uncle Pan Ya" being adapted and rehearsed as a stage play at a theater on 42nd Street in New York. The film adopts a rather complicated way of drama within drama to explore the subtle intertwining relationships of life as drama and drama as life. In the romance movie, a group of veteran stage actors goes to the rehearsal wearing everyday clothes, and the actor is himself.
The last posthumous work of the great French director Louis Malle uses a rather complicated way of play within a play to discuss life as a play and play as the delicate intertwined relationship of life. Many actors in the romance movie are sometimes themselves, and sometimes become characters in the play, interpreting the tangled emotional relationship between them in the real and false life interaction. The image of the whole film is relatively monotonous, but the acting is quite wonderful and was selected as one of the ten best films of the 1990s by the Associated Press.
