Was this uploaded by Mosfilm? I can't find it on their channel. Can you share the link?

I don't know whether this is of interest for you, swo, but you can find SoS on Youtube here. The part, which had been missing some weeks ago, has obviously been added ...

Eisenstein's Strike and Tarkovsky's Stalker have just been put up, as an adaptation of Uncle Vanya by Andrei Konchalovsky (who would go on to make Runaway Train and Tango & Cash in the US).

They can't upload it as it is not a Mosfilm film.

If you want to see how Soviets saw USA in the late 1940's, watch Romm's The Russian Question. A fascinating propaganda that mostly takes place in US. But his 9 Days of One Year is a better movie.

The excellent barren alien world sci-fi comedy Kin-Dza-Dza! is now up: Part 1 and Part 2.

Here's the old thread dedicated to the film.

Mosfilm has put Traktoristy up themselves now, but unfortunately it is one of a recent batch without subtitles, so no luck yet!
