two films

the assasination of trotsky- i was expecting a good political thriller instead we watched a boring film that was playing at being deep. and on the day i finished trotsky's literature and revolution. such a shame.



our new guest boris arrived while we were watching...


cranes are flying. very good film, won palme d'or in 1958. WW2 Russia, romance, tragedy. excellent. but most important thing was that i heard the folk song katyusha and became obsessed now i can't hear anything else (except for the russian national anthem). what's happening to me? does it have anything to do with studying vertv, eisenstein, lenin, trotsky in this last month?
