BTW - don't you still have my "Parad Planet" and "Gorod Zero"?
No problem, just curious how you liked them. Good films, both of them.

        Great film. As you may be aware it was shelved by the Soviet thought police for almost 20 years.
        My experience was contrary to Victor's, actually. I think it's a very good film.
        It is quite graphic in spots; and historically accurate. You'll be one step closer to understanding how and why the Empire fell apart.
        The portrayal on Nicholas II by actor Romashin alone is worth it.
        Not to mention Petrenko's Rasputin.
        ..I think we [briefly] discussed it here.
        
        Thanks Dmitry, its very favorably reviewed - gware 21:09:56 10/30/03 (0)

        I saw it and I didn't like it one bit. It was too heavy-handed and pretentious, I thought. I watched it looking forward to its end. Petrenko was good, but the whole film revolting. I felt similar emotiong watching "Idi I Smotri". I can't quite put my finger on what it is, but both films made me want to stop watching them - something dehumanizing perhaps. In that regard the impression was aking to that from Sokurov's later works. Both directors make you feel like you have just swallowed a worm.
        Klimov's earlier works were very weak. The "Adventures of a Dentist" was simply ridiculously weak, and his much heralded "Dobro pozhalovat, ili postoronnim vkhod vospreshchyon" was not much better either.
        
        Thanks for that Victor; I will check out Come and See - gware 20:41:39 10/30/03 (0)
