| 1975 Soviet Film: They Fought for the Motherland |
| 2023-05-14 |
| This is a typical Soviet war flick about WWII, directed by Sergey Bondarchuk, based on a novel by Soviet novelist Mikhail Sholokhov. It is set in southern Russia during the great retreats to Stalingrad. The film is about a Soviet rifle regiment cut down 90 percent by constant fighting. This presentation has English subtitles, but doesn't allow for embedding. I regarded as a good film, in that it kept my attention throughout. [I removed the title link to a pronsite host. The comment link is good] Link in title rewritten. Thanks Angalet Ebbavique4787 |
