Tried many ways and don't see a thread dedicated to online Russian movies which I have seen many and always looking for new ones. Latest I saw was Panfilov's 28 men which was very good youtu.be/8suNNyaZqMU |

Yes, I saw this as well and enjoyed. Especially interesting for the infantry dealing with armor. Also glad there was no cheesy romance angle that I have seen with other Russian war movies. |

Not a movie but a series The Attackers. Available online those of us with Amazon Prime memberships can stream the series for no charge, at least season 1. I am half way through the 12 episode first season (each episode runs about 43 minutes). imdb.com/title/tt3563130 And here is season 1 online at YouTube YouTube link |

June 22, 1941. The Soviet garrison of the Brest Fortress takes the first blow of the Nazis. Brest Fortress YouTube link Mystical movie. The mysterious tank – "Tiger" of white color, destroys Russian tanks with impunity. A no less mysterious soldier enters the fight against him.

Having crossed the front line, the scouts are gradually convinced that the enemy is secretly making a serious regrouping of troops for a decisive counterattack.
Star YouTube link A fantastic movie. Unfortunately, I did not find the first part of the film with English subtitles. A group of modern military historical reenactors from Russia and Ukraine are in the past.

Come and See link Even though it's in Russian, one of the most emotionally powerful films I've ever seen. It's about a kid who joins the partisans. |

Mserafon, agree, emotional movie. The viewpoint of the villagers and partisans is raw and unusual. The crawl through the bog brought a new appreciation for the endurance of the characters. So many villages. Sad. |
Cuprum2 | 28 Jan 2020 10:07 a.m. PST |
Here is this movie: YouTube link In Belarus, 5295 villages were burned by Nazi punishers. Of these, 628 were completely or partially destroyed along with the inhabitants. |

Loved both versions of The Dawns are Quite so watch the newer version. Those I haven't seen mentioned will keep me busy From a few years ago Shtrafbat, about a penal battalion youtu.be/0DxgUHWP2l4 |
Bobgnar | 28 Jan 2020 2:01 p.m. PST |
I question the use of term "punishers" by Cuprum2. This implies wrong doing on part of the villagers. Rather it was nazi policy to butcher the civilians. After watching Come and See you can perhaps understand better why the Russians treated the Germans in East Prussian and on towards Berlin so badly. Spoiler, so you might watch the move and not fear for the boy He is not shot, that is just a pose for the poster. |
Mserafin | 28 Jan 2020 5:01 p.m. PST |
"He is not shot…" Yes, and that's sort of the point – it's just casual, unthinking sadism on the Germans' part. They think so little of the kid as a human they don't even bother to shoot him. I suspect I'll be watching this again soon. |
Cuprum2 | 28 Jan 2020 8:25 p.m. PST |
Bobgnar I know that my English is not perfect))) But for the Nazis, all Slavs were subhuman. These territories were intended for settlement by residents of the "Aryan race". All Slavs were subject to destruction or eviction to Siberia. 14Bore
"Shtrafbat" is a good film from the point of view of art, but, unfortunately, it is not related to reality. |

That Finnish film I watched a few nights ago. Really good. Those Stugs have no problems brewing up T34s, but the attention to detail is excellent. Good action sequences but, as someone said about Close Contact (the Aussies in Vietnam) that does not compensate for the total failure to develop any single character in the film. |

So look up Walter Schellenberg and find out he is portrayed in a Russian series Seventeen Moments in Spring. youtu.be/WZhgXs_iFRs 12 parts and looks like first is a hour so suspect they all might be.
