And two I wanna mention, but which are not released yet and thus which I haven't seen but could be interesting (both based on true events):
- Kalashnikov 2020, about Mikhail Timofeevich Kalashnikov
- Soviet fighter pilot Litvyak 2020, about female pilot ace Lydia Litvyak
-
Thank you for the list.
A lot of low budget low profile war films now include re-enactor groups who’s kit is A1....but, sadly, they struggle with acting, accents and weight loss......I’ve watched hours of wartime footage and never seen a “full figured” German jumper.
Either way, the films are always worth a watch.

I agree that there are many of the re-enactor movies, some which are really bad. Like f.e. My honor was loyalty with overweight Italian SS re-enactors. Completely ridiculous.

All films mentioned are excellent
‘Come and See’ and ‘The Dawns Here are Quiet’ (both the 1972 and 2015) also the ‘Night Swallows’ tv series is superb!

Thanks for posting this excellent list. I saw Stalingrad 2013 in the theater with my son and was blown away by the effects. For some reason they showed the film in my local multiplex theater on the large RPX screen with crazy digital sound and in 3D no less. The premium large screens are usually reserved for whatever blockbuster just came out. We were the only ones in the theater that day, I guess no one was interested in seeing a 3D Russian movie with subtitles. Needless to say it was mind blowing !

Currently working through the Russian series "Life and Fate" based on Vasily Grossman's novel. Finished up episode 4 of 12 episodes and based on that I could say it's worth watching.

Thanks all for your contributions!!
I heard about "Life and Fate" series about Vasily Grossman. Was already interested so thanks for the heads up!
The "Nightswallows" series I have on DVD box but it was rather disappointing. Storyline is ok but both acting and also the uniforms, gear, medals etc all are typical late Soviet era. That left kind of a bad impression.
Will check all others mentioned
