New Eastern Front Movie

Post by Erik Rutins »

The Last Frontier / Podolsk Cadets

Looks like it would be worth watching. Not sure when/how we'll get access to it in the US.

I looked it up:

Name change!

The Last Frontier (2020 film)

Plot

The cadets of the Podolsk artillery and infantry schools are completing their training, and they will soon become commanders. Two friends compete for a girl. Suddenly, the command learns about the breakthrough of the front and the movement of a German tank column to Moscow. The only serious force is the cadets, they must stop the Germans at the Ilyinsky defence line and hold out until the reserves approach. In fierce battles, where many of them die, they fulfill this task.[4] Plot

Shout! Studios has take North American rights to World War II epic “The Last Frontier,” while U.K. rights have gone to Signature Entertainment. The deals will be announced Wednesday by the film’s sales agent Central Partnership at Roskino’s digital market, Key Buyers Event.

Distribution rights to the film were also sold to Japan (New Select), South Korea (PoongKyung SoRi) and Scandinavia (Mis.Label). Central Partnership will continue to close sales during Key Buyers Event and at Cannes’ Virtual Film Market.

“The Last Frontier,” inspired by real events, tells the story of how cadets from the Podolsk military academy staged a heroic stand outside Moscow in 1941. Cadets were sent to the front line, fighting alongside units from the 43rd division to hold back the German advance until reinforcements arrived. Hopelessly outnumbered, thousands of young men died in a battle lasting almost two weeks.

They would not have the money to invest in things like this so they probably would not be made and thus the world would be a poorer place. [:(]

I think that, give the pandemic, it will go to streaming services soon unless they hold the release.

The Russians are producing some interesting war movies. One that remained with me is "The White Tiger" - i.e. WWII as seen by David Lynch. It is on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiGDJ5- ... C%D0%BC%22

Of course I can't wait for the ASL-crowd to explain why every single scene of this movie will sux, according to the ASL handbook [:D]

Can I just say that I appreciate those on the forums and their movie, book, music and game suggestions. It has really expanded my horizon in topics I wouldn't have even considered had I not read from a post here in these forums.

Amazon UK has it for £7, only downside is its sub titles.

I've spent the last few years watching a lot of subtitled Russian documentaries and movies to help my daughter with her Russian, and it's the only way I'll watch them.
I like that in most of the Russian films I've seen , Hungarian and Slovak as well ,everyone speaks in their native languages. I literally cannot watch an Eastern front movie anymore with anyone speaking English.

Yes, of course you'd think that. I bet you jerked it the entire time.

Deleted some unhelpful posts. I also took the time to look at the interactions between the two antagonists. If you can't be civil to each other then there is an ignore button. Do not respond to posts you consider against our terms of use - just report to a mod or directly support.
