Thread: Фильм Андрея Звягинцева, Возвращение

Anyone seen it? found it as good as I did? Best Russian film of the year?

Yes, I saw it. I heard about it earlier and last January, when I was in Russia, I noticed a familiar face while switching channels. And yes, it was "Возвращение". It's a dark movie, with a chilling atmosphere and a great cast, especially the youngest boy. A very moving picture.

I think the youngest kid drowned while filming it?

drowned!?

Yes it was a very good picture

The film received a price at the Film Festival of Venice and the whole cast appeared on the scene, except for the boy who played Andrej (iirc). They all started to cry, when they received the price.

oh, how sad
