"Młodzi rosyjscy oficerowie, "dzieci 1812 roku", mieli możność zetknięcia się z hasłami i ideami rewolucyjnymi. Do kraju wrócili z postanowieniem walki z samowładztwem i absolutystycznym systemem rządów. Oto efekt ich 5-godzinnego buntu." |

Facebook doesn't come up for me but suspect it's the 1825 Decembrest Revolt and the Semenovsky Guards took part. Watched it without a word understood as I do lots of Russian movies. But if that's it well worth seeing for the spectacle. |

According to that FB page the film is Union of Salvation ( link film ) ) and the event is the Decembrist uprising ( link ) |

42 flanker you have me puzzled, Polish? |
14Bore | 07 Feb 2021 4:37 a.m. PST |
The link to movie might be here somewhere, came up about a month ago. |

"Constantine and Constitution!" My old Russian/Soviet history prof said that in the post-uprising interrogations, it turned out many of the Semenovsky thought Constitution was Constantine's wife. |

That's funny. I did quikly figure out who Miloradovich was but not until end that it was Nicholas running the show to put down the revolt. |

@14Bore- that was the caption on the link. I assumed most people have access to online translators. |
14Bore | 07 Feb 2021 8:52 a.m. PST |
I tried Russian and it didn't work. Who knows why? I use translation a lot as do lots of Russian history, Tango tells me it's not exact but close enough. I couldn't get the link so been flying blind this whole thread. |

Amazed those troops stood there as long as they did as they got decimated by those cannon! |

There has been discussion about this film 'The Union of Salvation' before. All about the Decembrist's Revolt it looks very realistic. I await the DVD with subtitles with long practiced patience. |

That's a really powerful scene. Amazing film work. |

Finally some artillery projectiles that don't explode! |

@14Bore It is Polish. Google translate gives this:
Young Russian officers, 'the children of 1812', had the opportunity to come into contact with revolutionary slogans and ideas. They returned to the country with a determination to fight against autocracy and the absolutist system of government. This is the result of their 5-hour rebellion. |
robert piepenbrink | 08 Feb 2021 5:34 a.m. PST |
Yeah. The wife did a paper on it about 50 years ago. Generally a mistake for a Russian government to let people travel too far west and return. You never know what they might have picked up on the trip. |
