Featuring Daniel Kaluuya, a great young actor and a fantastic director in Joe Wright, this may be well worth the trip to the Donmar.

On the topic of Joe Wright, I found his recent film Anna Karenina featuring a screenplay by Tom Stoppard and the wonderful Aaron Taylor Johnson as one of the leads rather entrancing.
What do you think? Did Wright do justice to the Russian classic?
