  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Stalingrad the movie.

It's looking promising, I hope the story is good.
 
The story of Stalangrad is a pretty amazing story. The production looks great.
 
I was lucky enough to see some of this footage at RED Studios last year and the cinematogrpahy and stereography are nothing short of AMAZING.
 
i think this movie gonna be the most "technical" in Russia since russian cinematography)))
 
I really enjoyed his movie '9th Company' - it had some amazing scenes (especially that aircraft crash). The locations really sold that movie too.

However, this 'Stalingrad' one looks odd; its got that weird digital set look to it. That works well in stylized fantasy movies like 'Sucker Punch', but I wonder how well it will translate to a movie set in a real historical setting? Time will tell.
 
I had a pleasure to work, albeit remotely, with Fedor on one of the short stories he directed last year. He's unquestionably one of the most talented people I ever had a pleasure to work with. I asked him about Stalingrad and he was very excited with what he had done so far. His "9th company" was a great war movie, followed by the very unfortunate trilogy- The Inhabited Island. I hope, that with Stalingrad he can get back to great filmmaking of his earlier times.
Just a note, Fedor is the son of the preeminent russian director Sergey Bondarchuck, who directed his own renown four part film -War and Peace. It seems, directing epic russian war movies is a great tradition of the Bondarchuck family:lurk5:
 
Love the look of this - and the trailer is well put together too :)
 
I did a little work on this movie and it was a very interesting experience. Fedor is a very powerful and influential man in Russia, his access to locations and government assets could never be duplicated outside of Russia. i will put some BTS stills up later.
