If you loved Khrustalyov, My Car!, try Hard to Be a God
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Aleksei German, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Khrustalyov, My Car!, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Hard to Be a God is
Seven Samurai on an alien planet. Scientists observe a medieval society, forbidden to interfere. One breaks the rule against violence, with horrific results. A grim film, shot in relentlessly oppressive style.
