I admit I haven't posted much about Russian or any other films lately but I've commented before on Takovsky and Eisenstein, the two Russian directors I know best (and like best). I've raved about The Return.

I've read your posts and noted your & Viktor's responses. Some of these titles are easier to get a hold of than others. I don't have much time lately for searching out foreign films of any nationality. When I do get caught up and finally see some things on my waiting list I'll chime in. You know I'm not shy.

My impression is that few current Russian films get North American distribution and thus get less attention in print and less buzz among film fans. But surely the greats of Russian cinema are as widely discussed and revered as any others. Certainly by me.

I think it's a fairly small club even at AA that truly loves foreign, classic and independent film anyway, so you're talking about a subset of a subset.

Keep posting about them anyway, the last subset is always interested in what interesting movies the hardcore is recommending.
