I saw it as one of the most powerful Christian films. Because, behind the war film frame, this is its essence. A film about truth and sacrifice, giving to Anatoliy Solonitsyn,Boris Plotnikov and Vladimir Gost.yukhin the opportunity to define basic terms of human kind in proper terms.
Great close-ups and the snow as echo of decisions and lived truths.
The splendid scene of the boy wearing Budeonovka , the young. Sergey Kanishchev proposing the fundamental trait of the Christ passion.
It is one of films who I see often. For the simple - precise remind of content of truth. For the fair remind of the necessity to be, always, yourself. For the definition of Evil . For the portrait of Judas . And for the glance of Boris Sotnikov .
It is so easy to define it as masterpiece. And, indeed, it is one. But , in special way, it represents more. So, see it !
