Very good commercial, jingoistic, eastern front war film.

Mosfilm on YT has been streaming a number of 60s-70s popular Soviet Russian films. Coming of age in the 70s I watched a bunch of international films but was aware we were seeing only films of artistic merit. The foreign films most popular in country's of origin didn't make the repertory theaters or film clubs.

This is sequel to a popular 76 film. I never heard of it. Its solid in what it wants to tell. The action is clunky, dialog preachy, acting first rate, production values very good along with practical effects and scenes of hundreds of partisans.

You can enjoy this from many perspectives. As a slice of WWII history, A dialectic on how to recount history, human endurance and sacrifice, what is culturally significant in other parts of the world.
