Two soldiers, from the opposing Soviet and Finnish armies, end up stranded in the Karelian forest wilderness and are sheltered by a local Saami woman. They are all excellent but mostly co-productions with international stars that’s why I didn’t include them but chose The Story of a Man instead.ĭo you have any favourite Russian war movies and/or recommendations? I highly recommend: – The Cuckoo = Kukushka (2002). It is also worth mentioning other movies by like. One of the first war movies ever with a lot of famous scenes. The movie shows the battlefield and the home front. (1957) A young woman waits for the love of her life to return from the war. When his village is bombed his wife and children are killed. () (1959) The story of a man whose life is destroyed by WWII. On his leave he meets a girl on the train and falls in love with her. (1959) A 19-year-old soldier gets a medal for bravery. Three Soviet officers try to take care of this boy-child. (1962) A young boy works as a spy at the eastern front.
(1972) The story of a group of female soldiers during WWII. (1985) A young boy gets caught up in the atrocities of WWII. () (1997) Childhood drama that starts during WWII. It has similarities with Platoon but the characters are very different, very emotional. () (2005) Gritty infantry combat in Afghanistan. () (2007) The story of the rise of Genghis Khan.
() (2008) The true story of Admiral Kolchak. Soldiers and civilians fight for their life. The Germans attack the Brest Fortress from all sides. If you haven’t seen any Russian war movies so far, I would suggest you change that as soon as possible. What they all have in common is a feel of authenticity, and a way of showing how atrocious war is that is very unique and emotional. Some, like 9th Company, are pure, gritty infantry combat, others like Come and See are more experimental. There are most certainly more but these seem to be the most important ones. I haven’t seen all of the below mentioned movies yet but have read a lot about them and have seen parts of them.
