Re: Soviet Military and Hollywood
For those with an interest in Stalingrad, I'd actually sugges the German movie called (as you may have guessed) "Stalingrad". I'd rate it as one of the best war movies ever made. And in terms of depicting Stalingrad theatre, much much better than Enemies at the Gate. Interesting is also that it depicts the German side of the battle which is atypical. The acting is excellent, cinematography as well, etc. A gem of a movie (made by the makers of Das Boot).

Double Heroine of the Soviet Union and Princess Leia prototype. John Wayne lusting after a commie and considering making her a Mother Heroine...
So wrong on so many levels. |

Re: Soviet Military and Hollywood
That's Hollywood for you - everything is bigger than in real life (or is that Texas?). Either way, their research budget must not have been half the size of those things on the outside of her uniform.
As for the hair, well we couldn't cause an international incident and try to find an ugly female Russian heroine, so we just make her hair look "frumpish" for that time period in a poor attempt to make her look less attractive. A whole lot of work for nothing, if you ask me. Phillip

Re: Soviet Military and Hollywood
Maybe those Hero stars are the right size and it's the actors which are the wrong size...... The B.B.C. in their documentaries always seem to get the Soviet awards wrong when making recreated scenes, when they show you a military intelligence colonel photo from 1960 with a chest of high end orders and then in the recreation he's got a very late uniform with a few commemorative medals from 75-88 it kills the scene if you know what to look for.....
