WWII Movies of Ukraine

[itsastruggle]

I love and try to study as much as I can about WWII and know quite a lot about my counties(USA)involvment with it.
Now that I am engaged to be married to a girl from the Ukraine and the fact that her grandmother was taken from the Ukraine as a child to work in the German Labor Camps. I naturally now would like to learn more about the History. I have been reading everything I can but does anyone have any suggestions on movies that I could watch. I know of the movie "Victory" with Syvester Stallone and Pele but are there any others.
Thanks,
Keith

Hey, Keith,

I assume you live in USA, am I right?
I know a bunch of movies, but most are in Russian, do you speak Russian?

Cheers,

Yes, I live in the United States. I am currently taking Russian lessons but I don't know enough to watch a movie yet. Maybe in 6 months or so. Thanks though.

The "Escape to Victory" movie was a fantasy flick - it's only connection with Ukraine was that it was ripped off from the true story of Dynamo Kiev reforming and repeatedly beating the nazis.

itsastruggle, there are a few titles I'm aware of, but I'm hoping VG lays some more on us.

There is a relatively (2001) new flick called " Undefeated" about the commander of the Ukrainian Partisan Army, aka Ukrainian Insurgent Army.

I have a film about Stefan Bandera called " Atentat : Assasination in Autumn". Its in Ukrainian with subtitles.

I asked about another UPA film I saw as a teen in another forum, and, as seems customary here, the only reply was from a malcontent. It was a good flick, but I was told back in the 80's that pllitics somehow got ahold of it and no copies were available.

To a yank, that seems ludicrous, but....

I▓m very interested in seing the ⌠Atentat : Assasination in Autumn■. But I don▓t know where to find it, can somebody give me a hint.
I checked Netflix, but they don▓t have it in their database. Also my research on the internet ended with only one link and it was this discussion.

Do you drink blood too? I have a polish friend. He prefers beer.
