Synopsis

The vibrant new film adaptation of the Anton Chekhov novella The Duel...nails also the essential qualities of comic indolence and dangerous yearning in Chekhov, which have proved so elusive time after time, in adaptation after adaptation.... The Duel looks beautiful, but it is not merely so. It doesn’t carry the baggage of an important adaptation; it's deft, droll and languorously sexy.... This film is indeed something like a miracle
