Movie Reviews of Burnt by the Sun
Movie Review: Mint condition, not just New
Summary: 5 Stars
Talk about new dondition. It seems like this video was touch only by gloved hands. It is in MINT condition. Wow!! I'm totally impressed.
I really will continue buying from this company. Also, this was delivered even before things I ordered before it. I'm still waiting on 4 videos that I ordered about a week before this one. I really recommend this company if you want to get your videos fast and in the condition stated by the company.
Summary of Burnt by the Sun
Russian filmmaker Nikita Mikhalkov is also the star of this tragic 1994 drama about the last happy season in the life of a Bolshevik hero's family. The year is 1936, and Stalin's purges are in full swing. Despite his reputation and revolutionary record, Sergei Kotov (Mikhalkov) seems to be on the dictator's hit list, as indicated by the insulting arrival of his wife's former lover, an agent of government police. Mikhalkov treats all this as a matter of personal and political intrigue dropping like rotting fruit in the middle of a sunny and loving period for the Kotov clan. The director ingeniously understates the mounting threat until one begins to realize that the Kotovs are only geographically distant from the long, bloody reach of Stalin. By the time we do realize it, the shock of change is almost unbearable. A very fine movie all around, though Mikhalkov's touches of magic realism (particularly the presence of a golden orb that keeps popping into the action) are distracting and a subject of controversy among viewers. --Tom KeoghArt House & International DVD Video
