Burnt By the Sun

A painterly beauty of a film... Ignore the negbert criticism...the critics are paid to criticise....enjoy what is a poignant slice of Soviet life during the purges...

I'm so sick of career movie critics like Roger Ebert and their pathetic commentary and criticism. "Touched by the Sun" is a fantastic movie, one that accurately portrays the social and political situation of Stalinist Russia. The movie offers a very personal and heartfelt degree of insight to the broader picture of a terrible chapter of Russian and human history. It's historically realistic, something that perhaps moronic buffoons like Ebert who live in their own little fantasy world simply can't understand.

Amazing on so many levels. If you enjoy film...

This is a must-see film for all who are serious about film, history, or humanity.
