[Northkeep] Ivan the Terrible, part II

[DulcetKitten at aol.com]

I was insomniac surfing and came across TCM playing the 1940-something movie 
Ivan the Terrible part II, filmed in Russia in the 1940s by Sergi Eisenstein.  
Apparently the film wasn't released because Stalin had banned it...and it 
wasn't shown until about 10 years later.  Being a Russian persona from the time 
period, it was interesting to see how Russians depicted it...though I'm not 
sure how much of the movie was authentic.  Has anyone else seen it?  If so, what 
was your take?

btw....the Polish court shouting "Vivat! Vivat! Vivat!" reminded me of all of 
you.  I miss you guys!  I'll get back into the swing of things once the opera 
is over (I hope).  This one is going to be amazing....I haven't had this much 
fun on an opera in years. (The silk party dresses don't hurt!...wish I could 
smuggle one out. heheh)

Das'vidanya!
