Promising young surgeon Yuri Zhivago is happily married to a wife from a good family when a world war, the Russian Revolution and his growing passion for the beautiful Lara disrupt their lives. Though Lara inspires his greatest poetry, they are kept apart by the forces of history until Zhivago defies the Soviet government to flee with his love to the snowbound countryside of his youth. There, they snatch a few moments of happiness until she vanishes with their infant daughter, leaving Zhivago to spend the rest of his life searching for her.

Hollywood at Home: Doctor Zhivago, Saturday at 8 p.m. on PBS 6.
