In Russian war movies they are, of course, the good guys.
Both the Russians and Germans were socialists, no fan either but I find it hard to root for the Soviet communists. The soviets were anti-God, the Germans were not.
That was pretty good!!!!
But I really liked the battle scenes.
My favorite Russian movie is “The Fall of Berlin”

I mean it’s slavish devotion to Stalin is so over the top, especially the ending when they show Stalin arriving in Berlin. (Although no such trip took place, Stalin only went to Potsdam, but it was much more low key)
But “Brest Fortress” really is one of the best war movies I’ve ever seen.
I made this Black Metal video using some WW1 movies. Some of these movies look really good, and especially would like to see the foreign film “Grey Nobodies”.
