Dear Friends,

Bristol Media is proud to announce that we are bringing a great new film to the international market -

ANTON CHEKHOV'S THE DUEL is a sumptuous literary adaptation from the director of LATE MARRIAGE (Cannes, 2001) and the Academy Award®-nominated producer of HOWARDS END and THE REMAINS OF THE DAY. Based on a short story by the great Russian playwright, THE DUEL deals with a passion that has turned to dust in the hot sun, and the animosity between two men with opposing philosophies of life.

"THE MOST SUCCESSFUL LITERARY ADAPTATION I'VE SEEN SINCE LADY CHATTERLEY."

-J. Hoberman, VILLAGE VOICE

"VERY SATISFYING and tonally precise...

moments of comedy, dark sentiments,

invocations of Tolstoy and a generous

attitude toward human frailties."

-Manohla Dargis, THE NEW YORK TIMES

"MASTERFUL!"

-Kenneth Turan, LOS ANGELES TIMES
