Re: Eisenstein's "Alexander Nevsky"

Hi Victor

Thanks for the response.

Yes I am aware of the politics surrounding both films - the Alex film being screened, then withdrawn as the peace pact was signed with Germany & then released again when Hitler turned tretcherous! But no, I did not pick up on the helmet changes!

And Part 2 of Ivan offended Stalin so much it was not released in his lifetime :-)

Yes we are also going to St Petersburg - be there in about a week & a half.

Now does the Criterion set clean up the sound of "Ivan" at all?
