Review of Kon Belyy

Kon Belyy (1993)
9/10
The first and possibly only true story about civil war in Russia
23 June 2004
This movie is like a backfire to all those soviet movies about war, used in propaganda ways, where the bolsheviks were served as heroes, but this movie tells all the truth about bolsheviks nad white guards and unbelievably sad destiny of Russia and its people, in the hands of evil. This movie shows people who was fighting against whom, not in propaganda ways, but to show Russian people,who were they warshiping all these years. For non-Russian audience this movie will also be a good lesson in history, cos when I watched Dr.Zhivago I were feeling, as I was watching another soviet propogandic movie.

The cast is pretty good,but editing in not. Couse being the ONLY true story movie about civil war, I give 9/10
