      Arshin Mal Alan
      This wonderful film has been restored. This film can be viewed in color format.U. Hajibayli "Arshin Mal Alan" wrote in 1913 when studying at the St. Petersburg Conservatory. It is not accidental, since the nineteenth century operetta was not in the original Russian. Vodevil Russia were the works of the genre. "Arshin Mal Alan" the film was given over to Moscow in July 1945,causing a great scandal by members of the committee (censure)are film critics. Despite the war, Stalin was looking at all the new films. He saw on the list of "Arshin Mal Alan" and wanted to see. Stalin even after watching the film with Rashid Behbudov singed some arias.
