I think the thing that always stood out for me in this film was the ice palace....just seemed like a place frozen in time (literarly) for me.
Yeah you are right, Yuri DID have that affair and DID end up abandoning his wife and children. Though, in my eyes, I still believe Yuri was a good man at heart, at least better than Viktor.

Besides the fact the Lara had stunning good looks, I would say the reason Yuri found Lara more desirable than Tonya was the fact that he never really could have Lara. There was always something in the way, and I think that made him want her even more.
