Received DVD immediately. I guess it is a TV series that was taped and then transferred to DVD because the quality of the film was not ideal. But still worth the price because my mother really wanted the story.

I absolutly loved the movie? Bruce Boxleitner and Melissa Gilbert did a wonderful job.
portraying their character's. And Danielle Steele is a fabulous author.

The movie came in perfect condition. I sat up until midnight watching it. It is very, very good. Thank you.

I had read the book first and loved it. So I was eager to watch the movie of it.
I understand that the books are always better than movie version, and they have to cut scenes out from the book, but they not only cut through (what seems as half the book) they also changed so much of the story. Had I saw the movie first, I probably wouldn't have wanted to read the book.
The story itself (for the movie version) is still good. It does connect you to the book even more.
I wasn't too thrilled with Melissa Gilbert as Zoya, she did ok. Simon wasn't really what I expected either. But the other characters were great. Bruce filled the role of Clayton perfectly.
If you haven't read the book, I would recommend reading the book first, then watching the movie.

It's almost as good as the book. Really worth the dough. However, some parts of the movie is pretty stiff.

One of my favorite Danielle Steel mini-series. I've watched it several times, and would recommend it to anyone who loves sweeping epic-type movies.

I am collecting and watching all the Danielle Steel movies---I watch them over and over----Would like to See Message from Nam on DVD

I wanted to see this film after watching on television another one of the films based on one of her books. What drew me to it was how Zoya escaped the fate of her family. If I could get a few of her books I want to read on dvd instead, I would buy them too.

What a fake!
Zoya comes to audition to Diaghilev's company in Paris and tells to - hm.. well... looks like to Anna Pavlova: " Before I left Russia I worked for what you call here Kirov Ballet"...
Sergei Kirov was a member of Russian Communist Party, he was killed in 1931 and only after that the former Mariinsky Theatre was renamed in his honor.. I do not understand how such mistake could be commemorated in a relatively well done movie... But probably it's worth it to buy this DVD just to enjoy hearing this line over and over again...
Danielle Steel is famous of not caring about historical facts, her other "Gem Of Fake " about Russia - "Granny Dan "...

Received in good time and in good condition
