Здравствуйте. Разрешите порекомендовать вам ещё "Баллада о солдате", "Зимнее утро", "Офицеры ", "В бой идут одни старики ". Это военные фильмы, но, в то же время, они не о войне, а о человечности, товариществе, как в сложных ситуациях оставаться людьми
you learned so much russian that you ended up watching soviet movie made by Georgian, great. Maybe first start learning to differ "russian" with soviet, which is more appropriate.
A memorable and great movie. I loved Tatiana Samoilova’s play . I saw this movie in 1958 in my home Town Rasht, Iran which is near the Caspian sea and 7 hour with a steam boat to Russia. It took a while for this movie to be translated to farsi and be played in the local Theatre. It cost me 10 cents to buy a ticket and watch it carefully. I still remember the marching music for draftees going to tbe war. It was so sad to see that he got killed so quickly . They were so in love and met each other with passion . Even though it is very hard to understand Russian language but her singing and movement leaves a sweet memory in your mind. Uncle David- Houston
Nothing, absolutely nothing to envy any other film from this genre and era. I think that more than being about war, it's about the people who live it, suffer it, and find the strength to go on. Very authentic and inspirational, thanks and greetings from Chile 👋
This must be a great movie! Like most of the Soviet films from that period. Great Soviet cinematography and theatre school. Aleksey Batalov was an exceptional actor. I liked him so much in "Moskva Doesn't Believe in Tears". Who didn't, actually? •I wonder if I could also find "The 41st". I must've been 14 y.o. when I watched that film and I still remember that war drama. Thank you for these gems, Mosfilm.
At mark 30:35, how on earth did he get this shot done? It moves and is perfectly focused on Veronika's face. It is decades before it's time, before steady cam technology.Incredible.
I've been waiting for this movie for long; this is the first Mosfilm production, that I remembered.I was about 15-16 years old, living in Eastern Block, that I saw this film....After 65 years, I still remember Tatjana Samoljova and Alexej Batalov. Then followed The Clear Skys and Destin of a men....These gems are unforgettable!.Thank you very, very much.
I agree, one of the essential films about the war and what it did to young people. This is as powerful as "Ashes and Diamonds" or the Finnish classic "Unknown Soldier" and a very bold film at the dawn of the post-Stalinist thaw. Wonderful acting, direction and not least amazing cinematography. The scene of Boris' death is one of the most powerful and resonant death scenes in all of cinema, expertly crafted and played and...one that really hits you in the gut, especially seen in the theatre.
A most memorable & romantic movie based upon WWII. Cinema lovers around the world during late 50s and 60s were fond of this Soviet-era movie. I could watch this movie during mid 70s on TV.
Spectacle inoubliable ! The Cranes are Flying, is the first Russian motion picture I saw during a projection at my great grandmother music studio. At Thirteen yo, I was very impressed with the projector's mechanics, the reels, the lens, the light, la pellicule et bien sûr, la magie. At this precise moment I became addicted to Cinéma. My great grandmother, her father and three siblings, left Imperial Russia, at the beginning of the last century to settle down in Montréal. Noblesse oblige !
Bonjour Michel. Votre commentaire est superbe. Moi aussi, j'ai vu ce film avec mes parents en salle à sa sortie en 1958. Il m'avait profondément impressionnée. Le jeu et la beauté typée slave de Samoïlova avec ses yeux en amande, et la mort de Boris , scène inoubliable, qui tourne en mourant autour de ce boulot et qui voit son futur qui vient de lui échapper...son mariage avec Vénonika, son père si heureux avec sa bouteille de vin, et ces" cigognes" au début du film et à la fin...C'est un des plus beaux fims de l'histoire du cinéma. Tatiana Samoïlova est morte assez récemment le jour même de ses 80 ans. Un détail amusant qui me fait rire. Le titre en russe Letjat juravli n'a pas pu être traduit exactement en français, en effet juravli ce sont les grues ! La traduction exacte eût été Quand passent les grues...Nous comprenons aisément que le titre mieux adapté à la langue française a été Quand passent les cigognes, titre qui ne prête pas à confusion...et qui même fait rêver...Bien à vous.
Jaime bien beaucoup cette filme más voila je ne Suis pas europeèn. J'habite au amerique, el salvador más j'ai prefere cette filmes et la realite. De sole, tu as an ami. Samuel, de el salvador. Je parte l'spagnol más Je comprend france dans mon cœur.
This masterpiece is incomparable, a shining example of Urusevsky's camera work at the highest level. Samoylova is a "divine" beauty, she lived this role at a high acting level. There is absolutely nothing irritating in this "cult" film, the script, the music, the cast, everything is in its place. This movie is timeless! Brilliant work.
Another fantastic film. All the emotional highs & lows. As I always do after viewing Russian films, I will go to the Boys Choir of Galenka and watch Dimitri singing "The bells...." Thanks to all who made this film a reality!! Sincerely at 80 y.o., in USA I remain, Sentebey
What can one say to properly describe such a well acted, heartfelt, realistic movie about wartime suffering and loss ? " As long as there are slaughterhouses, there will be battlefields " Leo Tolstoy
@@Apple-International Да-да. И снимал в Грузии. В СССР такого-то и не сняли бы. Давили талантов из союзных республик. В целом, даже по титрам пройтись, так там не грузины. Другие, тож тёмненькие, но не грузины.
Such a heartbreaking movie. Terrrific! I'm so late (at 50 now) yet so overwhelmed to watch it today. History has proved that duty is superior to love. Where duty knows revenge, love knows only sacrifice. Tell me what's better then? Russians have both in best: movies and literature. Thanks for sharing it here. Love from Kathmandu, Nepal
Totally fantastic. I saw this years ago when I was a child. It is unforgettable. Thank you for posting this. I never thought I could see this ever again
A great film. I'm very unhappy with the ending, it broke my heart. The opening scenes are beautiful photographic jewels . Any one shot could be framed and hung on the wall. They're masterpieces and in general, so is the film . Kalatozov was a genius and V.Rozov was a master playwright .
In my opinion, the ending was very realistic.....not all men return, many are killed, lost, wounded severely. But she made that loss instantaneiously into a glorious moment. And she gained another 'Boris'. Think of this movie the whole time.
Wow. Talk about "ahead of its time". I've watched so many movies this year and even this month but this is one of the most impressive. Thank you MOSFILM for uploading this because I couldn't find a copy with good subs.
I saw this for the first time in a Russian & Soviet film class in college...wonderful to have it available on TH-cam from Mosfilm itself along with many other classics! This along with Tarkovsky's Mirror are two of my favorite films.
It took me 6 years to muster courage to watch this movie and since I have been weeping for someone who was so dear to me. Since 30.5 years and my Life has never been the same.😭😭😭
The crane is a symbol of soldiers. I heard a story that they return in the form of cranes. The song of the crane in Russian folk music Журавли (canines) is not used in this movie, but I believe that listening to this song would deepen the meaning of the movie even more. "спасибо"
Mosfilms always make you feel such strong emotions. The suffering then determination to be of service to others. Her giving away the flowers at the end was her courage to go on. What a wonderful film. Spasibo Mosfilms!
For a Soviet film to win the Palm D’ four years after Stalins death is remarkable. It’s fully justified as it’s a magnificent film a landmark in Soviet cinema. Check out ‘Iam Cuba’ by the same director another magnificent film.
Thanks for uplaoding. I saw this film twice at the Mosfilm site. Along with Churkai's "Ballad of a soldier", this film is one of the greatest films about war.
I got a bit emotional at the end, and I'm not sure whether it was because of the actual ending or because it was so beautiful that it overwhelmed me. New favourite film.
I'm impressed by the subtitles' quality! Thanks, Mosfilm. Yes, Russian is my mother tongue, but I watched this version to check if translation is good.
This story is very sad and memorable. I felt all their emotions, as if the war is really in our life. This movie is really splendid and among the best. Russian really create superd movies like no others. I will continue to watch as many many I can find here. Thank you for sharing Russian movies because only on TH-cam we can get it.,,🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👍
the camera work is amazing of her running thru the crowd..... As many as 27 million Soviets lost their lives, with as many as 11.4 million military deaths joined by up to 10 million civilian deaths due to military activity and an additional 8 million to 9 million deaths due to famine and disease
Un filme muy conmovedor sobre la pena de esta mujer en tener que sobrellevar la muerte de su amado. Las secuelas que toda guerra deja a su paso para dar pie a la esperanza en tratar de superar tales pérdidas. Saludos y bendiciones a todos los cinéfilos de corazón.
THIS FILM is enchantingly beautiful from the very start. My jaw has been dropped the whole time and already (20 minutes in) it feels sore LOL. The Cranes are Flying is like viewing Rome Open City (yah, it's that good!) but with mind-bending camera work which reflects, first, what one sees in a film like "Green for Danger" (I have in mind the scene when Mark rapes Veronika during the bombing). Second I think we see reflections of French masterpieces like "400 Blows" and the closing scene of "Rififi" when Veronika is running faster and faster (before she saves little Boris). And all the fast-moving side-panning camerawork that follows her (and to a lesser extent Boris) through unimaginably thick crowds of people (remarkable!) features every human emotion under the sun. It's in Rosselini's second film of the venerated war trilogy, Paisan, when a viewer goes to the front of the hot war, I believe (haven't yet seen it, I confess, but Rome Open City is one of my absolute favorite films). But the point is that you have that here, too, in Kalatozov's masterpiece: he gives the viewer an authentic sense of the front and what Boris experiences before his terrible demise. Then we move right back to Veronika's world. But what was I saying? Ah yes, all those whirling images going by kaleidescopically, whether running or in a train, say. How this movement enhances the tremendous vulnerability of the protagonist in all these examples is perfection with a capital PERFECTION. =) I also feel that it gives the film as a whole a feeling of movement that corresponds to how Veronika holds out hope till the very, very end that Boris survives. An impeccable work of art. A must see. Sublimely beautiful.
SPOILERS Boris' death has to be one of the most haunting yet astonishing sequences in film. The sound design, music, double exposure, and cinematography are all on their A-game.
Majestic movie , In loved it very much. I have seen it in my hime town Rasht, Iran when i was 9th grade . It sure was a sensuous story just like many other Russian films about ww2 events.

I felt very emotional the war time tragedy depicted in this movie near and dear ones all lost forever
And most tragedy the advantages taken by the stupid opportunistic from the already shaken one during this horrible time
Thank you!
