Studio Classics, Academy Award Winner 1956.
For years rumors abound that only Anastasia Romanov, the youngest daughter of Czar Nicholas II, survived a Bolshevik attack on her family in 1918. Because a huge fortune awaits Anastasia, greedy expatriate Russian General Bounine (Yul Brynner) attempts to groom a beautiful destitute woman (Bergman) to pass for the empress. The woman becomes so convincing that even the General suspects she really is Anastasia. But in order to escape poverty, she must prove her identity to Anastasia's grandmother (Helen Hayes) in a story that remains one of the most cherished classics.

Since 20th Century Fox created the animated version of ANASTASIA in 1997, the popularity of the tale about the daughter of Czar Nicholas II has grown again in recent years.
