(OK) Splendid short sequence shots, a coreography of death in elegant skirmishes (no combats), bare chest men and brave nude nurses, the pretty chaos of deadly war...

View all The Red and the White reviews

The plot of the film takes place in 1918 on Soviet territory and reveals the murderous clashes between Red troops and the overwhelming White guards. The commander of the Hungarian volunteers stationed in the monastery at Ipatyev prepares for the execution of White prisoners, but in a few minutes it is the Whites who begin a terrible man-slaughter over his corpse...

The Return of the Film Diary (2024) (25 movies items)

"20.1. There's not that much plot in this film: it's just the brutality of war. It's namely Russian Civil war, but the way they frame it, this could be anywhere and any time. That is, inhumane violence and suffering, are universal."
