Why is Anastasia Romanov daughter of the last Russian Czar who was murdered along-with her family in the 1917 Russian Revolution so sought after in World History?
Seeking Anastasia is a romantic notion that takes some of the harshness from the reality of the true story. For the better part of the twentieth century following the Russian Revolution, life in Russia, the Soviet Union and the better part of Europe between WWI and WWII and immediately following were difficult and uncertain socially and economically. Until the use of DNA for positive identification came into use, there was no real harm in the fantasy that Anastasia be could found alive.

What is your favorite book or movie about war?
It is war oriented- but also touches a variety of other genres, espionage, intrigue, Romance, psychological drama- I am speaking of her Highness, Anastasia. It is certainly a powerful anti-war film- as the Revolution murdered her entire family with the exception of ( outside-war zone)- Empress Marie who was living in Denmark at the time. Somewhat oddly Queen Marie of Romania- who knew Anastasia personally, does not figure in either the Brynner-Bergman or the cartoon version of the story. She was Anastasia's aunt, so does merit some attention.
