The Last Command (1928)

The Last Command (1928)

You're right, I forgot to put it on the list
Thanks and Regards

This is a great idea, are you working on a research project, or just for personal interest?

Best wishes,

Crime and Punishment (1913)? Listed on Fandango but no further information

Crime and Punishment (1917)

Raskolnikow (1923) (Another Crime and Punishment adaptation)

[silentfilm]

The Nihilists (1905)

[Danny Burk]

GRAND DUCHESS AND THE WAITER (Paramount 1926)

How about Sidney Franklin's THE DUCHESS OF BUFFALO with Constance Talmadge? Mauritz Stiller's HOTEL IMPERIAL (1927) with Pola Negri. And I am probably forgetting a few others. OK, THE WOMAN DISPUTED (1928) with Norma Talmadge and Gilbert Roland. THE FIGHTING EAGLE (1926) with Rod La Rocque, and Phyllis Haver.

[Christopher Jacobs]

There's also THE COSSACK WHIP (1916), quite a good feature film from the Edison studio, and a French short about the Battleship Potemkin mutiny, LA REVOLUTION EN RUSSE (1905), which is interesting in light of the Soviet feature-length remake from 20 years later (which obviously belongs on such a list as well).

Neglected to mention the Harold Lloyd short A SAMMY IN SIBERIA (1919). There is at least one other Pola Negri movie, but I have forgotten the name of it. And wasn't there a Ben Turpin comedy where he was a Russian prince? I suppose you could also include Garbo's THE MYSTERIOUS LADY (1928) as well.

Here's another: Erich von Stroheim's FOOLISH WIVES (1922) - Count Karamzin wears a cossack officer's uniform and dawdles in Monte Carlo after the war because he can no longer return to Mother Russia (okay, he's a bogus count, but that's his story and he sticks to it).

:There is at least one other Pola Negri movie, but I have forgotten the name of it.

Oh, are you thinking of the yellow ticket movies? there's Der gelbe Schein/The Devil's Pawn (1918), The Yellow Ticket (1918), and The Yellow Passport (1916), as well as the Soviet-made Zemlya v plenu and talkie The Yellow Ticket (1931)

Glad The New Moon is already on the list, it's a real hoot! If you want extremist movies, there's one for you, though i suspect in the existing print that the titles have been change to make it less inflammatory.

There are Russian silent films on YouTube with titles in Russian,
so I don't know what they are.

Here is an example of one:

DANGEROUS HOURS (1919) with Lloyd Hughes, Barbara Castleton, Claire DuBrey

There are Russian silent films on YouTube with titles in Russian,
so I don't know what they are.

Here is an example of one:

That is Eisenstein's October:Ten Days that Shook the World (1928), I think.

Vsevolod Pudovkin: Mat (Mother, 1926)
Vsevolod Pudovkin: Konets Sankt-Peterburga (The End of St. Petersburg, 1927)

OPFER DES HASSES (1923), an Austrian obscurity recently mentioned in this forum.

... and Carl Dreyer's LEAVES FROM SATAN'S BOOK (1919) has a Bolschie episode.

DER WEISSE TEUFEL (1929), a German production directed by Alexander Volkoff, starring Mosjukin, loosely based on Tolstoy, has a few lovely sound sequences with real cossacks singing.

Thank you very much everyone for your contribution I hope to still see more titles on this issue.

Last Finnish silent called "Kajastus" (1930) is a story about Finland under Russian rule. Very good movie indeed, directed by Mr. Carl von Haartman.
