Larisa Shepitkpo's masterpiece is one of those gems of Soviet Cinema of her time that not only withstand the test of time, but that will always remind us all what an enormous loss to the world of art her much too early, untimely demise really was...Thank you for another excellent choice of a film to post among too many others to mention on this channel!...
@@Braziliansyrah He is actually correct in using 'withstand,' as he is not speaking in past tense, he is saying that this film is one of Soviet cinema's gems that still today withstand (present tense) the test of time.
A truly masterful film. I find it hard to watch more than once a year or so, but try to introduce it to friends who need to understand what the USSR suffered during this war. Thank you, mosfilm, for making this easier via YT.
Soviets, but especially Russia and Blearus suffered but not just because of Axis invasion only. Their lazy and stupid communist rulers had role on that human lost too.
This film is definitely one of the top three war movies ever made and I could tell it watching the first half hour. It's a great loss the director died at 41. Imagine her having another 20-30 years and what more masterpieces would she have produced. An absolute masterpiece. Too bad very few know.
I think so too. In general, I think foreign films (non-American/Hollywood) are better to watch because they don't follow boring old copy-cat formulas, plus they have less to work with (ie, they are often limited in what they are allowed to express), which means they learn to have the max impact with their given plot. As a good example, one of my fav movies is Iranian - "Beed-o-Baad". It's simply about a boy who accidentally broke a school window during recess and the rest of the movie is about all his challenges in the process of replacing it before his given deadline of next morning. I found his journey riveting.

One of the best Russian films I've seen with a splendid cast and very powerful storyline. Larisa outdid herself and produced a memorable film that will stand the test of time. May you rest in peace Larisa. Joe S

Glad to have been introduced to Sheptiko earlier in my year’s of falling in love with cinema - a true masterpiece this is, I always watch it alongside Marketa Lazarova or Ivan’s Childhood
Thank you for sharing this wonderful film. It is brilliant. It was beautiful, traumatic and unsettling in its depiction of core moral and ethical dilemmas. Riposa in pace, Shepitko. ❤
Dennis Schwartz: "Shepitko’s chilling and emotionally gripping WWII psychological drama depicts cowards, betrayers, collaborators as well as heroes. The haunting allegorical tale of the Great Patriotic War won the Golden Bear at the 1977 Berlin Film Festival. Many critics consider it the best Soviet film of the decade."
Nemesis, the goddess of divine retribution and the Angel of mercy certainly had exhaustive work to do in the post war era, due largely to the events that took place on the Eastern front. It is thanks to films like this that amnesty and oblivion in the end could find their rightful place.
Que filme maravilhoso! Uma fotografia perfeita. Interpretações impecáveis. Como é limitada, triste e, ao mesmo tempo, grandiosa a condição humana. Saudações do Brasil. Obrigado.

There are 712 views and only 88 endorsements , and only 2 comments... I don't even know what to think. The film is power! Everyone who watched wants not to, but will try on a rope loop and a strap in the toilet. And no one can say for sure what fits who. I just hope that I have the guts to make the only right decision
The film has been here on TH-cam for less than a day - it’s too early to count. Come back in a year. And with your depression, go to the doctors. That's not what the film is about.

@@67AlmazRus There is no need to show your "remarkable mind" so openly. Others may develop an inferiority complex. For you, as a particularly gifted person, I will explain that with my comment I just wanted to say that anyone who watched the film involuntarily put himself in the place of each of these people and asked himself the question: "what would I do in their place?" And if a person is honest with himself, then he will not receive an unambiguous answer from himself, at least until he finds himself in such circumstances. That's all.
This is an excellent movie with great acting. But it's a dark story, and being filmed in black & white somehow makes it even darker and grimmer. Russians are the masters of tragedy.

It's strange that this is a discovery for you. The best theory of stage art and the method of acting technique were developed in Russia. Not to mention that the history of American cinema is primarily about immigrants from Russia.
No, it's just steamed wheat. Buckwheat porridge would have been a delicacy for them. The partisans ate poorly, especially when they were being pursued. It was hard to get food, most of the civilians living in the occupied territories themselves lived in hunger.
After I read your comment and checked out the languages I feared I was doomed to not understand it. But there are wonderful clear English subtitles at least! Maybe ask for subtitles in the language of your choice?!
@@vadimanreev4585 Sviet citisens (majority of them being Russians) constitituted the largest force fighting on the side of Germany. Actually every third soldier in Hitle4r's army was soviet citizen.
I had friends who had to make that choice. Even though the Germans considered them to be untermensch, they were treated better by them than by their own government and worked for the Germans and retreated all the way back to Germany and didn't get sent back by the Allies to die. They were lucky. Eastern Europe is a very complicated place. We're not used to having to make complex existential moral decisions in the West but they are in Russia.
What a true masterpiece of film-making. Not only the story but the acting was some of the best I have seen, ever.

Proving once again that black and white film is not an obstacle to great cinematography.
Absolutely brilliant film! Judas ends up in never ending turmoil. It shows how everyone’s conscience is what really matters in life.
Посмотрите еще "Проверку на дорогах", не пожалеете, уважаемый
What a masterpiece, this movie depicted the horrible truth of suffering that comes with war, soldiers and civilians, no one is safe!
Don’t forget the 20,000,000 horses and other Animals
I watched this two years ago and it emotionally destroyed me.. masterpiece of a film.
The excellent score by Alfred Schnittke also adds much to the atmosphere of this powerful film.
So many lessons to take when you watch a masterpiece like this! All values are tested under extreme duress, stress and absolute Nazi oppression.
Nobody makes war films better than Russian film makers. They are always so authentic and believable.

War is like a pestilence that visits and wreaks havoc, we know it, we understand it but yet we are incapable of stopping it, even now.
As the Russians say: "for someone it's war, and for someone it's their own mother"
