1935?!? Amazing stuff! This movie was obviously heavily edited. Russians were not known for making four minutes shorties. But the important stuff is all here. They obviously gave this a lot of scientific thought. Self-contained breathing apparatus decades before Cousteau invented SCUBA. It appeared in one of the scenes that there was a stage separation! If that is true, this was pure genius at work!! The launch was much like George Pal's in When World's Collide, made many years later!

Спасибо, позабавили! Наверное, для своего времени это был передовой фильм (одна только невесомость и прыжки по Луне многого стоят), но сегодня выглядит уже как стёб над жюль-верновскими временами. А особенно умиляет профессор-космонавт с длинной седой бородой :)

Да, академик Седых - прекрасен. Как и многое другое:

Институт межпланетных сообщений;

Полет в 1947;

Название космических кораблей (это плохо видно, но на одном - "СССР-1 Иосиф Сталин", а на другом "СССР-2 Клим Ворошилов");

ДОСТРОЕННЫЙ Дворец Советов по ту сторону Москвы-реки (кстати, институт построен в Замоскворечье);

Мигающая надпись "СССР" на Луне, ради которой и совершен полет...

И еще много чего :)

very ahead of its time... but why silent? talkies were the thing in 1935....or was russia behind with the times in that respect?

[shivds]
