Amazing movie, really shines light on important things
|
I am glad American movie makers have desided to make this film. This is a great way to show to American people at least a bit of what is widely known in Ukrain and Russia and is deeply respected. The use of an actor like Elijah Wood would help all those 13 year old girls get a hold of this movie and discover something a lot more meaningful then obsession over Frodo's character...
Two things that gave me joy as I watched this movie was the realistic, Russian-Ukranian humoristic aproach, and the story as it unfolded.
Simmular story happened to my great-grandfather as well. He went to America during WW2 and when came back to get his wife, was killed for "betraying" his country.
Also, just so you know, the word they used for Jew was a Russian slogan that still means a Jew and IS NOT a descriminative word, just a slogan people are used to...
Also, for those who claim some scenes humanly unrealistic, well, when my grandma came to America, first thing she asked when arrived in 1998 was "Is the war really over?". For many of us it could be a surprise that she asked that, but in reality, all that she went through everything that my grandma and others have gone through made her who she was until her death and images of war never vanished...
I highly recommend this movie to anyone. |
