5 Russian films that have conquered the world - Russia Beyond is

"The battleship potmkin" (Serguéi Eisenstein, 1925)

It is difficult to assimilate that this work located on the cusp of world cinema (the film has the highest assessment in the aggregator of opinions on film Rotten Tomatoes: 100 % positive reviews), was prohibited in England until the 50s and even theyear 1978 was categorized with the X of porn cinema.Goebbels said that Sergei Eisenstein's movie was the work with the greatest propaganda load he had ever seen, and that he almost became a communist after seeing her.When this film was projected in the British cinemas in 2005, the London Evening Standard newspaper wrote: "Why go to see Avatar in 3D when we have this?".

In addition to the strength and courage with which Eisenstein showed violence that at that time left the spectators shocked, the director left for the next generations his innovative assembly technique.This technique was then used in Coppola's godfather and the untouchables of Elliot Ness de Brian de Palma, and the famous shooting scene on the stairs of Odessa practically reproduces in these two films.

Many have described this film as the best in the history of cinema;Among them, Orson Welles, Billy Wilder, and other teachers of the film management.

“Andréi Rubliov” (Andreí Tarkovski, 1966)

This Andréi Tarkovski movie, which tells the life of a fifteenth -century icons painter, had a somewhat complicated destination.Despite the application of the Cannes Festival, Soviet politicians refused to send the film in 1967 and replaced it for war and peace.

Andréi Rubliov was not shown in Cannes until three years later and only outside the festival program, still won the International Federation of the Cinematographic Press.In 1971 a censored version was released in the USSR and sold almost three million tickets.Another version, with 20 minutes cut in Columbia studies for commercial reasons, premiered in 1973 in the US: these cuts affected the quality of the film and in the press extremely negative reviews were published.In the mid -1990s, the initial version of 205 minutes from Tarkovski, which Martin Scorsese had bought in the USSR, was published on DVD, and the film began a new life.

Possibly because of the themes, places and the time of action, the film had not lost today.The directors of several generations and disciplines have declared their love.

"Guerra y Paz" (Serguéi Bondarchuk, 1966)

This adaptation of Tolstói's work would not have taken place if in 1959 the American version of King Vidor War and Peace had not been released in the USSR.Only after this the filming of a film that is unofficially considered the most expensive in the history of cinema was approved: no Hollywood studio would have allowed filming to last five years or the participation of 120.000 people with the army included.

Divided into two parts and with a total duration of 6 hours, "War and Peace" became not only the first Soviet movie to receive an Oscar for the best foreign film, but also in the longest.

"The hedgehog in the fog" (Yuri Northtein, 1975)

Yuri Northtein's ten -minute animated short on a hedgehog that is lost in the fog while he was going to visit a bear friend is so popular in the US that the family series dedicates a fragment of the eighth season.

It is a mockery of Americans about their own ability to transform any work of art into pop culture.And the fact of choosing for her the hedgehog in the fog says a lot of the creators of the series and the popularity of the Soviet animation short.

On the philosophical sense of this brief Northtein film, articles have been written in many languages, as well as about loneliness and horror of everyday things that acquire sinister features if they look at them in a certain form.This year The Telegraph placed it in the 19th place on its list of "Best Children's Movies".
