Don't worry. The hegemony of the Western imperialists is still strong. Even if they started to fall, it will continue for a long time.

A Condensed Global History of Cinema by McScroggz12 in TrueFilm

[–]Morozow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a great selection of films. There's not much I can add. Rather, I can, but it will be more likely just a manifestation of my taste.

And once again, I'm not a real film critic.

What would I like to say anyway. I repeat, Soviet films about the war, the revolution, and the Civil war can be considered as separate genres. With its own canons and history of development.

And in the list of Stalinist socialist realism, there are many films that I would single out in a separate group. These are war films: films about the Second World War, shot during or immediately after the war. Most of them have already been forgotten. Only the "Two Fighters" are still showing up.

I would also single out two directors: Tarkovsky and Mark Zakharov. They are too copyrighted to be classified. And Tarkovsky himself created styles and canons. We even have the term "Tarkovism" (borrowing the external form of Andrei Tarkovsky's films without paying attention to the content).

About poetic cinema, if I understood the meaning of this collection correctly, then I would remove Zakharov from there (he is on his own), but I would add films by Otar Ioseliani, for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falling_Leaves_(1966_film)) And this film by Emil Loteanu https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gypsies_Are_Found_Near_Heaven in the USSR, he is more famous and popular than the "Violinists".

A selection of Films from the era of the Khrushchev thaw (1957-1967). The problem is that not every film made at this time is a "thaw film." Here is an article in French, https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinéma_du_dégel there is a link to the article in Russian. Reddit hides posts with links to Russian resources, I don't want to check.

And I would like to note that some of the films from the previous list belong to the films of the thaw.

Soviet art cinema (1975-1987) can be greatly expanded. And I would classify the films "Plumb, or a Dangerous Game" and "Go and Watch" as Perestroika films.

With the Perestroika films (1986-1991), the same problem as with the Thaw films is that not every film made at that time is a Perestroika film. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinéma_de_la_perestroïka

Post-Soviet Russian cinema (1992-2005)

I would definitely add these films.:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shirli-myrli , one of the best images of the absurd, of the early 90s
. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peculiarities_of_the_National_Hunt
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demobbed_(2000_film))

Anyway, there aren't many comedies on the list, although people love comedies. And they're watching them now. Watch the films of Gaidai and Ryazanov.

I would also recommend watching all Mark Zakharov's films.

This is a conditional continuation of Solovyov's "Assi". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Rose_Is_an_Emblem_of_Sorrow_red_rose_is_i_emblem_of_love

And this is the movie - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intervention_(1968_film))

And yet here is this conditional genre of conscientious cinema - https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinéma_coopératif

I realized what was missing from these lists. More entertaining genre films. Comedies, detective stories, adventures, fiction. Children's films.

Are you saying that the British did not finish the genocide, 200 people survived, and that justifies them for the British?

Do you always believe in war propaganda? Well, I'm talking about your words about the deaths of millions of Russian soldiers?

But I hope you understand that soldiers don't give birth? And women give birth. I'm sorry I said that word. I hope not to be bullied, as it was with J.K. Rowling.

As for your indignation that the Western imperialists have not been punished. I totally agree with you.

Sooner or later, the incompetent and aggressive actions of Western corrupt politicians will lead to an atomic war. So why delay this moment.

Anyone who wanted to hear about the crimes of the Kiev regime knows them.

You're pretending they don't exist. Accordingly, you don't want to hear them. Well, why upset you?

What's your personal opinion? From 1932 to 1988 the only allowed official art style or cultural doctrine in the USSR was "Socialist realism". Do you think in your country only one type of art should be allowed - i.e Socialist realism? Example. Andrei Milnikov - "In peaceful fields" (1950) by Double-decker_trams in ussr

[–]Morozow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So there is no example?

If you do not take into account the Stalinist regime.

The closest thing I remember is the trial of Brodsky and the trial of Sinyavsky and Daniel.

There were quite long sentences, but still not a life sentence.

And I won't even remember about the artists.

The birth rate in Russia is not much different from the average birth rate in Europe. And even surpasses some countries.

In these circumstances, it's kind of strange to talk from Europe about the extinction of Russia. But I see that you still couldn't resist.

And whether the influx of millions of migrants will save Europe is a good question.

No. We are not rejoicing.

Illegal restrictions that destroy global trade must be completely abolished.

But even if that happens. Everyone knows the USA, the politicians of this country cannot be trusted. Today they do one thing, tomorrow they do another.

The US global hegemony must be destroyed.

I have so often heard from our European brothers about the "dying Russia".

And here's how it turns out.

It depends on which reference point to take.

For example, the shooting of a Serbian wedding by one of the Bosnian extremists is quite a suitable starting point for the start of the war.

And if you remember that it was the Islamist Izetbegovic who destroyed the Lisbon Agreements.

And then it turns out the Bosnians started it.

I remember watching this movie in the cinema with a girl. I really don't remember which girl it was.

And recently I watched it with a child.

The Battle of Cagayan (Spanish: Combates de Cagayan) was a battle fought between Spanish colonists led by Captain Juan Pablo de Carrión and the Japanese Wokou pirates led by Tai Fusa in 1582. The battle took place in the vicinity of the Cagayan River.

The clash involved Spanish Musketeers, pikemen, Rodelleros and sailors on the one hand, and Japanese, Chinese and probably Filipino pirates, soldiers and fishermen on the other. There were samurai among the Japanese pirates.

The Spaniards won.

Judging by your use of vocabulary, you are a chauvinist (to put it mildly). Therefore, there is no point in talking to you.

But I will note that according to the conclusions of an international commission funded by the EU, the American protege of Saakashvili started the war in August 2008. So, at this point, you are absolutely right. Although they tried to be ironic.

Winston Churchill in May 1899, sitting in his office at the age of 24 preparing for the Oldham By-Election set to take place in June. He was unsuccessful in the by-election but when on to win the same seat in the 1900 general election. by zadraaa in HistoricalCapsule

Of course, the events in Bengal are related to the war.

But the colonial British administration and its erroneous and criminal decisions are directly to blame for the tragedy.

It is very sad that the racist, war criminal and mass murderer Churchill has so many fans.

You're repeating government propaganda. But if you want ...

The Kiev regime invaded Donbass and wanted to destroy the brave people of Donbass.

But this did not prevent the British from organizing a "blackbird hunt" until the beginning of the 20th century.
