Dorogaia Zhanna,
Well, the movie was made for an English-speaking audience by Sir David Lean, a great British director, and I think the language challenge would have prevented Russians from appearing in it. In my opinion though the film tries very hard to represent all sides of an extremely diverse and complicated situation. What makes it most appealing is its understanding of women, and specifically of Russian women of all classes, and there were many classes in that old society, all with some attraction. Chekhov, too, had a way of sympathizing with all levels of society, as this picture tries to do.
Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson depict a much more modern society, and are spectacular actors. I agree with you that Nicholson should look for women who are a little more mature, but women won't leave him alone apparently. Like Jack, though, I can admire young beauty and character, but I am saddened that someone as beautiful as you is so far below my lower age parameter. I might add that women in general are very adept at leaving me alone.
