\"\"<\/a>Based on the play of the same name by Anton Chekhov, written for the screen by Stephen Karam, and directed by Michael Mayer, The Seagull<\/em> is a pure classic. The story is an actor’s dream to play one of the characters of the poignant and crucifying Russian play, which was first on stage in 1896.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The cast is brilliant with four very strong actresses including\u00a0\u00a0Saoirse Ronan,\u00a0Annette Bening, Elizabeth Moss, and Mare Winningham.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The movie follows an aging actress named Irina Arkadina, played by Annette Benning, who spends her summers visiting with her brother Pjotr Nikolayevich Sorin, played by Brian Dennehy, and her son Konstantin, played by Billy Howle, on a country estate.<\/div>\n

On one occasion, she brings Trigorin, a successful novelist, played by Corey Stoll, with her. Nina, played by Saoirse Ronan, a free and innocent girl on a neighboring estate, falls in love with Trigorin.<\/p>\n

As Trigorin lightly consumes and then rejects Nina, so the actress, Arkadina, all her life has consumed and rejected her son, who loves Nina. The victims are destroyed while the sophisticates continue on their way.<\/p>\n

If you are familiar with Chekov\u2019s play, you know the ending of the four-act play. I doubt the movie will be as long.<\/p>\n

The movie trailer is very good and shows the conflict between the Nina, Irina, Trigorin, and Konstantin. The supporting cast, such as Elizabeth Moss, appears to offer comic relief. Moss\u2019 last line in the trailer is an awesome delivery.<\/p>\n
