I'm really into Russian literature and film and this one is pure cream. Perfect casting, spectacular cinematography, and a great story. This film is never boring and, for Americans, yields an incredible sense of Russian culture under Stalin; however, the tale is not at ...

East-West

Linda Bassett, Sandrine Bonnaire

Sony Pictures, 2000

If they did this to their own people, imagine what they did to others

Prisoner of the Mountains

Oleg Menshikov, Sergei Bodrov Jr.

Marvelous acting by Menshikov
It was hard to expect from any such a humanistic, unbiased movie of epic reach, given the history and blood weary relations in Caucasus. War movie that does not fall flat in combat scenes, landscape that does not sweeten the movie but enhances the story, complex dark ...
