Sorok pervyy

The available print of Soviet movie The Forty-First is a bit rough and naturally missing a few pieces. But that doesn't stop it from being a interesting film from the great director Yakov Protazanov. The movie has that edge that mixes the political movement with the European sensuality of Ada Vojtsik. That along with the Russian.... I mean the Soviet ending, The Forty-First is a deteriorated little gem of a movie.
