I WALK THROUGH MOSCOW, 1963, dir. Georgi Danelia
A fine example of the Thaw period in cinema, this light-hearted film is a romantic stroll through the summery streets of Moscow. It features some of the great Russian actors, like Nikita Mikhalkov and Evgenii Steblov, in their debut roles, and is directed by a master of film comedy, Georgi Danelia.
MOSCOW DOES NOT BELIEVE IN TEARS, 1980, dir. Vladimir Menshov.
An Oscar bearing melodrama, which won the hearts of millions of audiences around the globe. This simple yet incredibly touching story of three women living in Moscow can be undoubtedly considered as a national cinematic treasure.
