Alexander Nevsky: Beautiful beyond measure. A "personal" film carved out of an epic. A true war-movie, it does not glorify war.
But, what's new about this old classic is that it does not pretend to have some weird anti-war agenda either. Now, this might appear in stark contrast to what many pop-gory x-ollywoodish trash of films do, times and again, nearly always to be loved by audiences and public alike!.
A simple film-lover like myself can only wonder how many film-makers have learned, and how much, from this and other handful of Eisenstein's classics.
10/10
