It's just a fictional movie. Dr. Zhivago was a terrific book and movie,
though the movie differed from the book, and neither really depicted the
level of horror of the first few years of communist rule in Russia.



Speaking of Dr. Zhivago ...

The movie came out when I was living in Connecticut. I was "exploring"
at the time, dating different girls every week or so. All they wanted
to do was see "Dr. Zhivago". I must have seen it 5 times in 3 months.


I read the novel for a 10th grade book report for my favorite teacher of
all time, Mrs. Emma Ruff. She loved the report, and gave me an A+. Some
years later, she became principal of the school. Her husband is a
world-famous musician and is on the Yale faculty, or was the last time I
checked. Willie Ruff, part of the Mitchell-Ruff duo.
