Little Moscow

I had this DVD for awhile and never thought of putting it on, as you know how it's like you got to be in the mood for a serious war-like drama. One night i told myself, I wanted something to watch something with depth.. So Little Moscow was staring me in the face.

I was hooked on it as soon as the movie started. It's a beautiful period melodrama which took place in the southwestern Polish city of Legnica, the headquarters to the Soviet forces stationed in Poland from 1945-90. So it's basically a triangle love between Vera who is married to Jura a Russian military pilot, but soon after she fell for Michal a Polish lieutenant. The gorgeous Svetlana Khodchenkova plays dual role between Vera the mother in the 60's and Vera the bitter confused daughter at present time. Svetlana did a decent job in the roles and stands out throughout the film, but it was Jura who managed to gain the viewers sympathy..

If you're feeling a little bit sentimental, this would perfectly fit your mood..
