Detskiy sad (1984)
A Gem
This film is a gem, in the genre of "war creates orphan" stories.
I first viewed this picture back in the late 1980's and saw it a couple times, but not since then. Nevertheless, despite 16 years passing (or fleeting) by, I still remember this powerful story as if it were yesterday.
We feel the bleakness of winter, the homelessness of a youngster, and the overall impact that a long war can have on even the most defenseless of a nation.
It would be nice to see more great Russian films released on DVD here in Europe or in the western world.
No Place to Go (1939)
A wonderful film!
With all the blockbuster films released in Hollywood's Golden Year of 1939, this is one of the many motion pictures that was completely overshadowed that spectacular year.
An old man moves in with his now "grown-up" child, and hopes to be a help around the house. It soon becomes evident to the man, that he is indeed more of a bother than anything else.
When an orphan boy comes along, played remarkably by young Sonny Bupp, life again takes on new meaning for this kind-hearted elderly gent.
I rate this film 9 of 10, as a wonderful story, and because "No Place To Go" really brings the heart around to a more simple yet special way of life.
