From the music to the acting this movie was excellent. It's eccentric and original which is needed in a society full of crappy Hollywood productions. Guy Pearce is fantastic (How does John Travolta make more than this guy???) Anyways, If you like movies like Immortality with Jude Law or The Evil Dead movies, then get this one!!!
I took out this movie from the College library to help write a research paper on collectivization in Stalins Russia. It was actually quite good in that it depicted the hardships of peasants in that era. It is also a good representation of the propaganda that Stalin used in order to trick the peasants into becoming collectivized. I think it is a good film for anyone to view and it's especially beneficial for those trying to get an understanding of historical Russia and peasant life. Beware though, don't be tricked by what you see! Collectivization was not such a positive thing, many people were killed during the processes of dekulakization and others were faced with economic hardships due to shortages and quotas. Overall it is a good propaganda film and is historically significant!
