It seems silly that this stub has a fully loaded set of references to the Olivier film version, but not two other, arguably more important film versions:

1. Uncle Vanya on 42nd Street 2. Dyadya Vanya (Konchalovsky)

I don't have time to do this right now; just making a suggestion that will set things right. Also, I'm not an expert, just an armchair QB.

I removed both the diagram and the unattributed quote. The quote was a clear copyvio and the diagram really needs some explanation in order for it to be useful (not to mention that, in order to be included in the English language article, it ought to be in English).

Vanya was performed in the provinces (which is where Gorky saw it) before Stanislavsky got ahold of it. Also, listed some famous film versions--vanya is fairly prolific on celuloid. Also, some notable actors who played Vanya. G 6 January 2006

Shouldn't this article have a plot summary of some sort? --Unnatural20 (talk) 05:00, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
