Actually I agree with the music. Basil Poledouris is one of the great forgotten names in film music. He shared a deep passion and understanding of russian music; and besides, this song is fking epic.

@potasiu2 Thanks so much for that... As you can see I catch and endless amount of crap for the music in this. I did the best with what I had at the time :) I still love the song and think it's a beautiful piece of music. I actually use Poledouris much more effectively in the second half of the All Mixed Up Love episode. I think he's a very under appreciated artist. Thanks again :)

Last I checked, this song isn't actually a Russian song, It was made just for the movie Hunt for Red October.

[TruthJunkieMikael]

@Gneisenau It sounded Russian enough for the slide show... It was one of my very first attempts at something so I figures If anyone watched it more then once, it would have been for the charge they got of the music. I never expected to go on and continue getting views... i mean shit... Nearly 30,000!!! None of my other come close... I hope when I'm done with the All Mixed Up Symphony, some of the episodes will endure :D

Thank you for putting these clips up. Films like these must never be forgotten. For those of us who grew up during the Cold War, films like Ivan bridged the gap between nations and people. Another great WWII "kid" film btw is an American film entitled "The Search" with Montgomery Clift and Czech child actor Ivan Lendl.

[TruthJunkieMikael]

Hey hey, i'm so pleased to see your high opinion of The Search. It is one of my favorite films. I also have its listed in a categorie as a Neo-Realist film produced outside the Italian market. The Search was a rare and shining example of both old and new American masters trying to bring the same truth and realism to film, that the Italian NeoRealists, French NewWavers and Latino CinemaNuovo of the time were breaking down barriers with. Thanks so much for the lovely comments. I appreciate it!!!!

... i am eastman and im very happy to see how "west" people show fraternity and understanding ABSOLUTE IS COMMON

.. sorry for my english

Previet!!!

Spahseebah... for the lovely comment. I love Russian and eastern European cinema very much. It's honest and carries a heart and soul that does not exist in films from other countries. The heart and soul of common people doing their best to live in peace with the things and people they love. Tarkovsky was and is one of the most enduring artists of the 20th century and a true patriot for the highest ideas and philosophy that motivated the best minds and artists of the socialist era.

Indeed a fine collage, but the music ruined it for me - very UN-Tarkovskian!

i saw ivans childhood sixty years ago in film festival of india...this was the most remarkable russian film ..i have not forgotten this film..andrei tarkovsky was his best in ivans childhood...ramesh goswami

[javialacarga]

Well, it's nice that someone wants to pay tribute to him, but I must say this must be almost the worst choice possible for the music...a song from an American Hollywoodesque action movie...a movie in which the Soviet main characters are mere stereotypes and dream of going to Montana ¿¿¿??? Seriously, I think this music does not fit the images at all...specially if you know where the music actually comes from...

[tool619]

Tarkovsky had so much to give to the world. There will never be another like him in cinema...
