      Hi I to Love Russian Cinema

      You appear to have seen alot of films?

      Ive seen about 4 of the Tarkovsky films, 2 paradjanov, all of eisensteins, 3 dovshenko, 2 pudovkin, and 2 klimov and several others...including vertov, ballad of a soldier and the cranes are flying

      My favourites are Dovshenko's Earth, Eisenstein's Alexander Nevsky and Elim Klimov's agonia and Klimov's Come and See, a very harrowing account of world war 11, based partly on Tarkovsky,s Ivan's Childhood and the khatyn story by Ales Adamovitch..

      Im at presnt looking for an puppet animation that maybe Russian or Japanese and is based on the lieutenant Kije story wit kije music by Prokofiev

        Re: Russian Cinema

        a few years ago I watched (I think a Russian/Eastern bloc-related film)...lots of harrowing scenes ...German death squad , who themselves are massacred under a bridge after being captured by the Russkis. I seem to remember lots of shotsof a little boy soldier wadndering throught the forests etc

        anyone?

          I think it will be the film come and see by Elim Klimov, I mention it in my russian blurb a couple of weeks ago..

          it came out in 1985 and was shown on channel 4 I think around 1994 or 5 at a time when foriegn films were more common on tv..

          it is called idi smotri or something like it .. you will find alot of it on u-tube and it also available on dvd
