When I see the child running, I always think that he's running from the mistakes of his father and Lara; the pain of his mother and life in general - and he's running in search of a free Russia, free from the anguish of war and Communism.
Wow! I saw the older version about a year ago and although I thought it was good, it didn't move me at all. This version was sooooo good. It brought me to tears. I'm definitely going to have to read the book now. Thank you for posting this. I wouldn't have watched it otherwise.
I'm glad a newer version was made to replace the first one. In 2011 Omar Sharif slapped a woman across the face, on camera, when she dared to approach him as a fan who wanted a picture taken with him. (find it on YouTube) Now that we know in his heart he is monster....like many monsters that believe women are lower than dogs....it feels good to see him replaced with a better man.
Watched this for the first time, it brought tears to my eyes, it just shows how strong a relationship can be when it is based on pure love for one another rather than a relationship based as a necessity. Loved it.
Enjoyable to watch......nothing compares with the original version with Omar Sharif and Julie Christie.......but.......this was a really really good job.......and Keira was amazing.
I didn't cry when Yuri died since I thought him very selfish for leaving his kids for a woman but boy I'm in tears over the last moments with the little boy.
@micmoable The story does not take place in Germany! If you paid any attention it takes place in the Victorian era during the Russian Revolution and after when Communism took it's foothold. These people are RUSSIAN!
@Masteroftheunive1000 boy's mother being taken by police and put in the concentration camps that existed and operated at that time---Concentration camps are the same BS anywhere they are operated--and Lara only killed the SOB cause he wouldn't let her alone to be with whom she really loved-----
This whole movie was rather disturbing to me. I kept hoping it would get better and sorry it didn't. Lots of unanswered questions and stupid choices. Just my opinion.
This movie is really remarkable and probably the best movie I have seen in a while but I like the book better . :)) But I will certainly watch the movie for the second time.. Keira's act was inconceivably great just like Hans' and little Yuri's.
@Aboodf430 Because she was with Komarovsky who was a lawyer in czarist era with political connections and who have fled from the commies. When Lara came back to Moscow, she got arrested by Bolshevik secret police.
I think what she meant by she got away from the"old cougar" of a man and that he won't be going after her anymore is that he got tired of her and took interst in her daughter...messed up boi...he had 3 generations of women in her family
God so very heartbreaking in the end. I really enjoyed this I simply will say it's far different than the original but if it was it's own story it would be pretty spectacular. Still emotionally charged, glad I saw it.
what happened to her daughter? how did she get away from sam oneail? how did her son survive at such a young age considering he had no family? why was yuri so damned gorgeous?
@ducrozet74 The daughter was left with woman named Marpha when they were fleeing from the commies to Mongolia. Later Marpha ended up in the madhouse and the girl became homeless and later worked as a laundress until she was taken care of by Evgraf.
@ducrozet74 Her friend played by Anne Marie McDuff probably took care of both the daughter and Yuri's son. She was in a secure place as a Bolshevik party member so they would be safe. At least until Lenin died when Stalin purged the original regime members.
Someone suggested that this version was superior to the 2005 Russian made one. I would say they were dead wrong. Not that this was bad, it just did not capture the characters and chemistry that way the Russian one did and to be honest Keira Knightley just does not do it for me as an actress. If you can stand subtitles I suggest watching it, it goes into much more detail and is far more intense in my opinion.
How do you make that decision? In an instant she has to decide wether is would be best to leave her child on the street or have him join her in the concentration camps. I have a young son his age and I believe I would have walked the other way, and at least found some to take care of my son first before they found me again.
these people were sensualists...people who live for the moment...you can see them in casinos, divorce courts on their fourth divorce and psychologist's offices...they never prosper
@missmuggledetector It's track 13 on the soundtrack for this version by Ludovico Einaudi, called 'white night' :) I never watched this when it was on in 2002, but i did walk in on the ending, and even though i knew nothing about the storyline, the music, and the scene of the boy running, just broke my heart and i never forgot it, and now i've finally found the track itself!!
@sexipants Thank you so much! I have to say...The ending for the mini series totally blows the movie ending away! It's just gorgeous...Pretty similar/same lines are said in the ending of the movie; but this conveys so much emotion and feelings - it's just beautiful and heart wrenching though I still don't like Lara lol.
My husband can watch the '65 movie all the way through,but,he refuses to watch the last scenes of this one where Yuri is running down the street as his mother is taken away.He cried the first time he saw it,and,won't watch it again.
@crowleysridgegirl No! I was talking about your husband! That it is cute, that he cried. I think that being capable of crying requires to be a strong person. I definitely dont think that the scene was cute. You missunderstood me.
i love how he first sees her thru a window and at the end he sees his son thru a window.... and i cried a whole different cry than i ever have from watching a movie at the end when she walked away from that boy...
This movie is really beautiful, heart-wrenchingly sad, and absolutely horrific at the same time - can't make up my mind! Yury was so full of life and by the end he was disabled .... but he still wanted to be a doctor and write poetry, just like the beginning. But I think everyone got a pretty sucky deal at the end - except little Yury. The way he's running, you can just tell he's going to be all right. I mean, come on, there's got to be someone in this film who survives with a happy life.
one very important part that's missing, IMHO, is his poetry. The novel is autobiographical and Pasternak has a volume of "Zhivago's" poems to go with this. As deep as this novel is, Pasternak's poetry is believed to be much stronger than his belles-lettres. And as I am certain that it is nearly impossible to translate poetry in general, I am certain that the best renditions are usually "composed" anew. Sadly enough, I'm unaware of a decent translation of Pasternak's poetry.
@nickrussel79 find an old edition of the work. i found a 5th edition copy of the book and the poetry in the back is beautiful. they reflect the struggles of the book but keep the language of the time.
The movie was well made but this girl Keira Knightley doesn't know how to show emotions in her face, she is smiling all the time even in the saddest moments, could have been alot better if some1 else played the role.
This movie was on hallmark channel over the summer. I hadn't realised that Keira was so young in this movie. Who would have thought that a few months after filming this movie, she would be a massive star! I cried my eyes out in this scene. Sobbed like a baby!
This is one of the most beautiful love stories i have ever seen and i cried so hard at the end because laura and Yuri never got a chance to grow old together but they were able to love each other. Thanks for posting this film
This Movie was amazing! It's left me speechless. It was so emotional and suspenseful. I LOVE IT! I can't wait to write my review fer my summer assignment fer school!
Thanks fer sharing the movie. I absolutely LOVED it. :)
A very toching and moving story--such a sad ending----the young lady who played Lara was so beutiful in this movie----the old fart who slept with Lara when she was young was like an evil devil who kept showing up to get his sexual kicks from the beautiful young lady---I guess from the movie that she must have killed him----she said he'd never again come afterher----serves the old bastard right!
Could they have made the ending a little sadder? How about she says goodbye to the little boy, gets taken off by the secret police, and then the kid gets creamed by a truck in the closing frames.

@okla1959 when boy is running away he does seem to have a smirk on his face like he's about to laugh---he should have been more afraid or somber in the moment!
WHAAAAAAAAATTTTT!!!!!?????????? Heart attack!?!?!?!? WHAAAATTT!!!!??? I knew Russia was cruel but WHAAAATTTTT? Awww...okay. I'm sad now. That's horrid irony. But hey!!! Sexy Misha works as a back-up plan. XD
why can't they make a freaking movie with a happy ending for once?! i think the movie would've still be as good with a happy ending.. like the notebook..arghh
@awwwcomeon was a real sad ending but I couldn't help noticing that the little boy looked like he had a smirk on his face as though he was about to laugh as he ran away down the sidewalk in last scene
Wow..that was an amazing story...I just auditioned for the Musical Dr Zhivago here in melbourne, Australia and watched it to see what the story was about and ended up getting hooked and bawling at the end.....beautiful and touching story. Thankyou.
The ending is so touching. I sat and cried in this very moment when Lara "says goodbye" to her son, it is very beautiful, even though they'll never see each other again.
I would say Keira Knightley did a great job on this film!! Considering she was only 17 years old during the filming and 18 when it came out. But the film is really great! thanks for the upload!!
The book was published firstly in my country, in Italy, thanks to a publishing house called Feltrinelli editore.
The revolting thing is that the owner of it, Giangiacomo Feltrinelli, made a scandalous amount of money from this book, while the author, Pasternak, and his wife, were left penniless and poor in Russia.
I think that there is a trial going on till these days because Pasternak's heirs haven't yet been given their money.. What a sad world we live in.. Ciao a tutti!
The arresting officer is the spitting image of Beria, as is only appropriate for such a monster. The ending just ran a sword through my heart. Wonderful.
Oh my gosh that was just amazing! I've always wanted to see this (since I was named after Lara Antipova), and.....I am soo happy I came across this!! Thank you soooooooo much for the upload!!!! <3
oh, my God. how sad. I love the `1965 version, but this one is closer to the book, and is very well done. I've got two questions. I: How did Lara get away from Komorovsky? II: Why was Lara arrested? (I'm almost crying as I write this). An excellent version of the classic novel. Keira Knightley makes a wonderful Lara, Sam Neill a menacing Komorovsky & Hans Matheson a tender Zhivago.
@zeinasereia, I haven't read the book, and I only have small knowledge of this version of the movie, but in those days, in that country, you could be arrested merely to meet that day's quota of "wreckers of socialism", "Trotskyites" or any other group deemed dangerous to the Machine. Stalin was a psychopath--millions upon millions were "denounced" and died. Maybe it's beside the point here, but true nonetheless.
you sectioned the movie very well and the quality is pretty good. I saw maybe an hour of this movie when it was released for TV and I never got to see the rest and I couldn't find it any where to rent....so I eventually forgot about it. A few days ago though, I saw a trailer for Clash of the Titans and I saw Matheson in the trailer and that made me remember this movie, so...lol...thank you truly.
that was THE SADDEST MOVIE ENDING i have EVER SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!
i cant believe it.. NO ONE ended up happy!!! :(:(:(
tonya never got back yuri... who stupidly listened to meesha, when he really shouldve gone back to tonya, who wouldve gone to sleep crying every single night because she'd have thought he didnt love her...
then evil komoravsky stole lara, and yuri never saw her agian!!!!!! and with his dying breath was after her
aww i havnt seen any of this film but this one clip reli made me cry and i dnt cry at anything, tht little boy was so cute and we she looked at the police and then looked at the little boy smiling, it was so sad!! thnx for posting this
So what happens to the kid? Did Lara tell him to run to a particular person or place?
Anyway, if she'd been truly concerned with the welfare of both her children, she would have stayed with Komarovsky, where she could have been safe & prosperous, and the children could have grown up in 'The Party'....and would have been privileged and powerful....until some purge came along, & Stalin had them tortured to death. So I guess this IS a classic story of the 'Revolution'. Nothing turns out well.
i dont no why but right at the end when lara said 2 her son "lets have a race" i birst out crying am still cryng a bit i dont no why i was fine watching the rest but at that bit i lost it
i honestly thought that was the saddest movie ending i had ever seen - because nobody ended up happy....
but i guess some say that lara was happy and 'free', and young yuri felt safe, i mean i understand that... but no one ever lived fully 'happily ever after' if you know what i mean
and who cares if that sounds cliche its true and it was just sooo so sad wathcing this and knowing that :(:(:(
I mean her sleeping with the old man WAS morally wrong.
Anyways she is smiling in the end because she is finally free. I mean Yuri died and she is leaving her son, but he wont be taken too. He is off to live and survive and she wants him to feel safe and feel that she will follow him.
You cant blame them for loving each other. Strangely as much as I hate cheaters I cant. I love them and their affair. It was so raw and passionate.
You have to understand how some times different cultures thing differently. And in times of war things are different. I mean look at the man sleeping with Lara when she was a girl. Not something that is morally wrong, but it was fairly common then in order that people might survive.
I know it was wrong, that Lara and Yuri be together, but they loved each other and their lives were torn by the same man. They led sad lives and together was the only time they were happy. Its beautiful and sad.
This is a story about love, about weakness, and about human struggle. The characters aren't supposed to be perfect. I don't think he should have loved Laura more, but he did. As a poet, he can't ignore the longing in his heart, and remember, he keeps TRYING to get back to Tonya, because he loves her too. The conundrums in his life mirror the the paradoxes of communism. Though he wants to make everyone happy, he's only one person and in the end someone will always get hurt.
When I see the child running, I always think that he's running from the mistakes of his father and Lara; the pain of his mother and life in general - and he's running in search of a free Russia, free from the anguish of war and Communism.

I loved the remake this movie.
This is one of the most beautiful love stories i have ever seen and i cried so hard at the end because laura and Yuri never got a chance to grow old together but they were able to love each other. Thanks for posting this film

A very toching and moving story--such a sad ending----the young lady who played Lara was so beutiful in this movie----the old fart who slept with Lara when she was young was like an evil devil who kept showing up to get his sexual kicks from the beautiful young lady---I guess from the movie that she must have killed him----she said he'd never again come afterher----serves the old bastard right!

Could they have made the ending a little sadder? How about she says goodbye to the little boy, gets taken off by the secret police, and then the kid gets creamed by a truck in the closing frames.

I would say Keira Knightley did a great job on this film!! Considering she was only 17 years old during the filming and 18 when it came out. But the film is really great! thanks for the upload!!

The book was published firstly in my country, in Italy, thanks to a publishing house called Feltrinelli editore.
The revolting thing is that the owner of it, Giangiacomo Feltrinelli, made a scandalous amount of money from this book, while the author, Pasternak, and his wife, were left penniless and poor in Russia.
I think that there is a trial going on till these days because Pasternak's heirs haven't yet been given their money.. What a sad world we live in.. Ciao a tutti!

oh, my God. how sad. I love the `1965 version, but this one is closer to the book, and is very well done. I've got two questions. I: How did Lara get away from Komorovsky? II: Why was Lara arrested? (I'm almost crying as I write this). An excellent version of the classic novel. Keira Knightley makes a wonderful Lara, Sam Neill a menacing Komorovsky & Hans Matheson a tender Zhivago.

ive never read the book but im thinking she got arrested maybe because she murdered komorovsky?? she said he wd never be coming back for her.

ShakespeareHamlet 2 years ago
@zeinasereia, I haven't read the book, and I only have small knowledge of this version of the movie, but in those days, in that country, you could be arrested merely to meet that day's quota of "wreckers of socialism", "Trotskyites" or any other group deemed dangerous to the Machine. Stalin was a psychopath--millions upon millions were "denounced" and died. Maybe it's beside the point here, but true nonetheless.

you sectioned the movie very well and the quality is pretty good. I saw maybe an hour of this movie when it was released for TV and I never got to see the rest and I couldn't find it any where to rent....so I eventually forgot about it. A few days ago though, I saw a trailer for Clash of the Titans and I saw Matheson in the trailer and that made me remember this movie, so...lol...thank you truly.

that was THE SADDEST MOVIE ENDING i have EVER SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!
i cant believe it.. NO ONE ended up happy!!! :(:(:(
tonya never got back yuri... who stupidly listened to meesha, when he really shouldve gone back to tonya, who wouldve gone to sleep crying every single night because she'd have thought he didnt love her...
then evil komoravsky stole lara, and yuri never saw her agian!!!!!! and with his dying breath was after her
then poor young yuri :( so so sadd...

i feel exactly the same way as you! its the first time i've ever seen doctor zhivago, and i only did because i am a huge fan of keira knightley!!!
but in this movie at times i really didnt like her because she was causing tonya so much pain - so that means it must be a good movie haha :):)

the sad thing is, that boy is doctor zhivago and lara's son.. and he will now grow up with no parents, just like zhivago did.
but at least he has his father's poems, which wil pretty much show him everything there is to know about his father :)

So what happens to the kid? Did Lara tell him to run to a particular person or place?
Anyway, if she'd been truly concerned with the welfare of both her children, she would have stayed with Komarovsky, where she could have been safe & prosperous, and the children could have grown up in 'The Party'....and would have been privileged and powerful....until some purge came along, & Stalin had them tortured to death. So I guess this IS a classic story of the 'Revolution'. Nothing turns out well.

i honestly thought that was the saddest movie ending i had ever seen - because nobody ended up happy....
but i guess some say that lara was happy and 'free', and young yuri felt safe, i mean i understand that... but no one ever lived fully 'happily ever after' if you know what i mean
and who cares if that sounds cliche its true and it was just sooo so sad wathcing this and knowing that :(:(:(

I mean her sleeping with the old man WAS morally wrong.
Anyways she is smiling in the end because she is finally free. I mean Yuri died and she is leaving her son, but he wont be taken too. He is off to live and survive and she wants him to feel safe and feel that she will follow him.
You cant blame them for loving each other. Strangely as much as I hate cheaters I cant. I love them and their affair. It was so raw and passionate.
nfldshorty21 2 years ago
You have to understand how some times different cultures thing differently. And in times of war things are different. I mean look at the man sleeping with Lara when she was a girl. Not something that is morally wrong, but it was fairly common then in order that people might survive.
I know it was wrong, that Lara and Yuri be together, but they loved each other and their lives were torn by the same man. They led sad lives and together was the only time they were happy. Its beautiful and sad.
nfldshorty21 2 years ago
This is a story about love, about weakness, and about human struggle. The characters aren't supposed to be perfect. I don't think he should have loved Laura more, but he did. As a poet, he can't ignore the longing in his heart, and remember, he keeps TRYING to get back to Tonya, because he loves her too. The conundrums in his life mirror the the paradoxes of communism. Though he wants to make everyone happy, he's only one person and in the end someone will always get hurt.
