Bezhin lug (1937)
4/10
Lacks in relevance outside the Soviet union countries

"Bezhin lug" or "Bezhin Meadow" is a Soviet black-and-white film from 1937, so this one is almost 80 years old already. It is by the famous Latvian filmmaker Sergei M. Eisenstein, one of the leading Soviet writers and directors from his era. Nont the entire film exists anymore, but creative heads managed to fix it to some extent that we at least can watch this and see what is going on with the plot, characters and story. But still, I was not really impressed by this film that runs for slightly over 30 minutes. In terms of contents, I believe (like most of Eisenstein's works) the focus on the Soviet Union is so strong that people from all kinds of other areas will have a hard time getting interested in this one and this includes myself. I do not recommend the watch. Thumbs down.
