Starring Vladimar Ivashov, Shauna Prokhorenko
Director Grigori Chukhrai
Russian soldier Alyosha Skvortsov is granted a visit with his mother after he singlehandedly fends off two enemy tanks. As he journeys home, Alyosha encounters the devastation of his war-torn country, witnesses glimmers of hope among the people, and falls in love.

A touching WWII story of a reluctant young hero who, when given leave from the front, sets out to see his mother and fix up the roof of their house. On his way home he encounters odd little adventures, including a innocent romance with a homeless girl who stows away on his military train. He finally arrives home with only enough time to look at his mother before he has to turn around and go back to the front.

A lyrical interpretation of war, as seen through the eyes of a young soldier granted a temporary furlough to visit his mother. Academy Award Nominations: Best (Original) Story and Screenplay.

Released in the U.S. by M.J.P Enterprises and Kingsley International.

Ballad Of A Soldier Reviews:

"Deservedly regarded as one of the finest Soviet war movies....Chukhrai stages this with a quiet, understated lyricism...."-- Michael Brooke, Sight and Sound

4 stars out of 5 -- "[S]inging with formal punch and emotional precision."-- Kevin Harley, Total Film

This is the only Vladimar Ivashov video. Stars also making their debut in this video: Shauna Prokhorenko.

As a counterpoint to the heroic horde of THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN, the aging gunmen of Sam Peckinpah's masterpiece break the very laws of honor which bind them in this bloody and meditative tale of the American West--widely considered to be the self-conscious nail in the coffin of the genre. William Holden, Robert Ryan, and Ernest Borgnine star as the leaders of a grizzled crew of Texan bandits who ride to Mexico, where, one by one, they are unceremoniously slaughtered by a Mexican revolutionary. The western, a genre steeped in legend and the concept of loyalty, was a dying breed when Sam Peckinpah unleashed this amoral ...

With the release of Robert Altman's M*A*S*H in 1970, a new form of comedy was born, one that would help to forever change the face of cinema. Altman's audacious film reflected the American counterculture's growing distrust of religion and government in the late 1960s and early 1970s, resulting in one of the biggest box office smashes of its time. Introducing the techniques he would employ throughout his storied career--overlapping dialogue, a constantly moving camera with a heavy amount of zooming, and a bold combination of frank subject matter with cynical humor--Altman immediately vaulted himself to Hollywood's upper ranks. Based on the novel by Richard Hooker, M*A*S*H follows a group of Mobile Army Surgical Hospital officers as they perform surgery and pass the time just miles from the front lines of the Korean ...
