Soviet Film Compilation?
Hello,
Does anyone happen to know of a Soviet film compilation DVD or set of DVDs?
It would be nice to obtain some sort of library of the most popular movies from the 50's through the 70's.
I like Ironia Sud'bi, Sherlock Holmes, Nikita Mikhalkov's "White Russian" movies, Chelovek Amphibia, and other films such as these.
I also enjoy the newer movies and serials, but those are easily obtained.
If you do not know where I might obtain a set or compilation of these types of movies, then can you recommend some?
Thank you

Hi Andrei,
I don't know whether it exists - if I find out it does, I'll be the first to buy it! :lol:
The best source I've found so far is Moskwood, a small Dutch business that reedits classic movies, and they have a soft spot for Russia. ;)
Have a look:

Much of it is only in Dutch :? - if you need help, feel free to PM me.
Also: I know you said 50's-70's.... but if you're cinema-interested, don't pass by Eisenstein, Dovzhenko, Pudovkin, Vertov, etc. Their work is at the base of any movie you see today, and not only the Russian ones.... :wink:
