The Seagull (12A) 99mins
One summer at a lakeside Russian estate, friends and family gather for a weekend in the countryside. While everyone is caught up in passionately loving someone who loves somebody else, a tragicomedy unfolds about art, fame, human folly, and the eternal desire to live a purposeful life.
Adapted from Anton Chekhov's classic play, The Seagull explores, with comedy and melancholy, the obsessive nature of love, the tangled relationships between parents and children, and the transcendent value and psychic toll of art.
Starring Elisabeth Moss, Saoirse Ronan, Annette Bening, Billy Howle, Corey Stoll, Brian Dennehy and Michael Zegen.
'all-star cast brings out the comedy in Chekhov...everyone is terrific' The Guardian
'None of the actors is less than poised, and Mayer delivers cinematic snap, making everything look velveteen, moving events along at pace' Financial Times
'Annette Bening is wonderfully haughty as Irina, the celebrated actor, visiting the family estate' The Independent
'If the finale does flirt with tragedy...the aftertaste is refreshingly sardonic' The Times
'Chekhov with chortles' The Times
