films eventual to upload with among others Bulak-Bulakowich

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QX4HksXErYc&feature=player_embedded#!
it is an Estonian film. It also shows pictures of the Danish Corps in
Estonia.


another Bulak film
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lh0-uO7tBGY&feature=player_embedded#!

Interesting - at least to me - the Estonian film clip seems to show the
Danish volunteer corps in Estonia 1919-20. It is the soldiers with
English helmets and very light grey uniforms. Also a picture of the
Danish commander is shown in the clip.

On http://www.chakoten.dk/cgi-bin/fm.cgi?n=911 you can read a little about the corps - in Danish - but Google helps.
I do not know how good Google is with Danish, but you will find out.

The first film - "White and Red" and "Stars and soldiers."
 Joint film of the USSR and Hungary. 1967.
 The film has English subtitles.

 The film fairly grim. A significant portion of the film took the stage executions and massacres. I think it accurately conveys one aspect of the Civil War.
 More impressed by a scene of desperate and hopeless attack red and singing at the end of the movie International. In some ways, it echoes with a scene of the attack from the white "Chapaev."
 I must say that the annoying ads (clip at the beginning of the film and the window appearing in the show). Alas - a payment for free viewing.

Favorite Russian sailor's song - "Yablochko" (apple).
From the film "Optimistic Tragedy"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ilo9nv7asnc


This episode of the 1957 Soviet movie "Tihii Don" is related to a Russian cavalry charge -- executed by a regiment of Don Cossacks -- against the Austro-Hungarians.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLRINnp1_00&feature=player_embedded


A scene from Soviet-Yugoslav 1958 movie "Aleksa Dundić" which shows a battle between Red Cavalry Tachankas and White Cossacks.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RLS2VEvUso&feature=player_embedded


Attack of the anti-Bolshevik forces in 1918 (before the coup Kolchak) against the Bolsheviks.
 This is one of the armies of democratic opposition (to oppose the Bolsheviks even under the red flags). The troops do not wear the shoulder straps.
 Images from the film "Save the Emperor."
 Music: Farewell of Slavianka (Unofficial anthem of Admiral Kolchak's White Army) written by the composer Vasily Agapkin in 1912.
 It is interesting that the author of music served in the Red Army.

Post by: cuprum on December 05, 2011, 02:30:32 AM
I read a good article, a study in one of the Russian military and historical journals about the phenomenon of psychic attacks during the Civil War. It was not an uncommon phenomenon, as part of the White forces, and by the Reds. Although it is often the cause was not excessive heroism, and simple lack of ammunition.
 Moreover, if the attack was on the troops, which have a low combat experience, very often they are able to put to rout with little loss. Nerves some people do not iron :-)
 But if the enemy turned out to be well trained and stable soldiers advancing losses could be considerable, and she attacks - ineffective.

I suggest watching a good movie, based on which you can create some nice scripts for the game.
The film in Russian, but has English subtitles.

"Home Among Srtangers, a Stranger Among His Own"

At Home Among Srtangers, a Stranger Among His Own is a 1974 film starring Anatoly Solonitsyn and directed by Nikita Mikhalkov.
The setting is post-Russian Civil War, during the reconstruction of the young Soviet republic. During the war, Shilov, Sarichev, Kungorov, Zabelin and Lipyagin had become great friends.

There are two main plots in the film, the first involving the theft of gold by outlaws just after the Russian civil war. Though the cannons are now silent, the enemy continues to harass the Soviets.
The regional committee sends a precious shipment of gold by train to Moscow, and a group of Cheka soldiers led by Shilov are entrusted with the responsibility of guarding it. The gold is needed to buy bread from overseas to feed the starving population. When the train is attacked by bandits, the guards are killed and the gold stolen. Shilov is kidnapped before the train sets off, and is dumped in the street, pumped full of drugs, after the attack. He is suspected of treason, partly because his brother was a "White", which is where the second plot comes in. Shilov must infiltrate the enemy camp to find the gold, hence the title.
The second plot involves the Shilov's desire to clear his name of murder, and he must find out who killed his friend. During his efforts, Shilov uncovers a web of deceit and treachery, which allowed the robbery to succeed. The story of a hero battling against corruption and greed echoes the cattle baron or railroad Westerns...

Thanks Cuprum, this is very interesting  :)

...and an other one from another singer Олег Газманов
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnaIuyBA5co
...but from the reaction of the public with this last guy I suspect there is some different political background but I did not take the time to explore it more ???

Господин офицер / "Mr. Officer" - a form of appeal to the Russian army officer.
 Also, Mr. doctor, Mr. teacher, Mr. actor.
 In the Soviet army was replaced by the following formula: "Comrade Commander."
 Therefore, the following words in the songs are fairly common.

 The Last Song of Oleg Gazmanov - unofficial anthem of the modern Russian army officers.

 Sorry - I do not completely write the name of the movie: "Gentlemen (Mr. Officers): Save the Emperor"

I found on Youtube Soviet film "The Fall of the Emirate." Unfortunately, only in Russian.
But here you can see the army of the Emir of Bukhara (in the film she is depicted a authentically)  Basmachi and reds. Also, take a couple of ideas to create terrain.

In Russia left on screens a new TV series "Страсти по Чапаю" ("Passions aroused by Chapay").
The film tells the story of the legendary Red military leader Vasily Chapaev. His division fought in the Urals against Czech Legion and White army.

Parade - Kolchak's troops, in my city.
Many of these buildings still exist in the old part of the city.

The soldiers ... Funny look  ;)
As sung in one, popular during the Civil War, the song:

The soldier - Russian,
Uniform - English
Boots - Japanese
Ruler - Omsk.

Woooow! Impressive work! I wouldn't want to be an actor in a film where you get a horse falling in your trench! (and I've been in many re-enactments). :o

And I don't know many wargame rules which would accept infantry to come out of their trench to fight against charging cavalry. :D

Chapay? Or Chapaiev?

 Yes - this is not provided by the rules :)
 But the White Cossacks on the Eastern Front were few infantry and cavalry very much. And having reached  on horseback to the enemy, the Cossacks dismounted to-hand combat.

 "Chapay" - the so-nicknamed soldiers of his division. That's his nickname.

The song "Merrier" singer Igor Rasteryaev

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tI1oFKdIp0g

I find it difficult to translate the song - but I think you will be able grasp the meaning of

We had time and now
 last steamship
 Will take her away us far , far away
 Forget forever
 The pain and the cold
In other country , where it will be easy and the heat

Hey , bro , let's go with us - it will be good!
Hey guys, I can go with you
But my native steppes cheerful walk

Suppose in other country let there the sun shines brighter ,
Even if there is greener grass
 I thought about it more than once, or twice
 But my native steppes cheer for a walk!

Brother, faster, faster
 No time for speeches
 Well what kind of steppe are you talking about , do not tell us
 Do you remember the last fight
We with you barely gone
Steppe again you let you down and betray

Why are you telling me about my homeland
 I know everything , but I 'm not going with you
 I'm a native steppe breathe more merrier!

And it is not clear which of us out in the cold
 And it does not matter , the point is ,
What do I breathe in his native steppe merrier !

A thick veil of overcast sun
Look back stupid - black smoke over the hill !
No way home
 Enemies are galloping like a solid wall
 To trample everything that something that was previously you!

Do not you realize that you 're acting like fools
 In the homeland of beat me , or fed with hands
 I learned to love in spite of everything

I fought for some reason , sought, found,
 And as a result the meaning of life was one
 I'm in native steppe to me buried more merrier!

I walk in the native steppe merrier !
I'm a native steppe breathe more merrier!
I'm a native steppe ...

I remember it as quite impressive - we didn't see many film about the RCW then. Now it looks very old-fashioned, but – history of nearly one hundred years ago, in a film made almost 50 years ago, is still… impressive when you think about it.

Very nice song, and interesting old-fashioned video, thanks Cuprum!

So this is a RCW song?

It becomes difficult to know which songs are from the historical period, and which are not. I watch with interest the videos of the Moscow parades on May 9th and November 7th; and it seems that songs about the RCW or WW2 but written much later are now very popular in the Russian army (as "Нам нужна одна победа", and "Tri tankista", very good songs but written a long time after the events).

This song has appeared much earlier than the Civil War. Its occurrence referred to in 1774 - during the Russian-Turkish war.

How video excerpts from the film "Alexander Parkhomenko," filmed in 1942.

The song "Three tankmans" written in 1939 for the film "Tractor Drivers".

The song "We need one victory" was written in 1970 for the film "The Belarusian Station".

Ukrainian Galician Army had uniform on the basis of the Austro-Hungarian.
In this army is a very interesting story. This army fought against Russia in the First World War, and then fought against Poland, against the Bolsheviks in the Ukraine in the army of the Ukrainian People's Republic (UPR), further Galician army joined the White Army, and later - sided with the Reds. During the Polish-Soviet War, part of the army remained in the Red Armyand part sided with the Petlyura (UPR).

Once Upon a Time in Odessa. Tv Series. Adventure Melodrama. English Subtitles

Quote
Mishka Yaponchik was an Ukrainian gangster, Jewish revolutionary and Soviet military leader. His commanding personality and unconventional nature led Isaak Babel to base his character Benia Krik in The Odessa Tales on this legendary criminal.
Born Moisei Vinnitsky, Yaponchik was an exceptional and eccentric character. He rose quickly through the ranks of the criminal world, becoming head of the mob and establishing his own code of conduct forbidding the robbing of the poor and professional classes. Hailed as the next Robin Hood, he held the hearts of the people in his hand and soon controlled the entire city.
Artistic and witty, his bold crimes played out like mini dramas but Yaponchik, always calculating his next move, also had a generous nature. He held huge feasts for the whole population of Odessa, giving money and food to orphans, the homeless, the unemployed, newlyweds as well as families who had fallen victim to gangster crime.
Yaponchik was in power for only three years from 1917 to 1919, but these were the most dramatic years of his life, filled with more action than most people experience in an entire lifetime - his rise to power, his daring crimes, his idealism and generosity and his love of two women - his beautiful wife, Tsilia and anarchist Lisa, his loyal accomplice who remained by his side until the end.

For wargamers is interested in the fact that, "Mishka Japonchik" created from the Odessa gangsters, regiment, which fought on the side of the "red" against Petlurites. It should be noted that due to the total indiscipline, the regiment did not last long and was quickly defeated, and himself Moses Vinnitsa was killed during the arrest for failure to fulfill an the order. This regiment was known most exotic uniforms down to tailcoats)))

Alas ... There are lots of of interesting Russian films and TV series that not have even English subtitles, not to mention the simultaneous interpreting or full English dubbing.
In this series, the characters speak a unique dialect of Odessa - this is a very original and beautiful mixture of Russian, Ukrainian and Jewish language. This dialect is impossible to convey in translation, which is a pity)))

Watched all the 12 episodes: very good - many thanks for the links!

A mixture of tragedy, crime film, and sometimes comedy (some characters are a bit clownesque but I understand it's a Russian tradition), on the whole it is very well the spirit of so-called "Back of Beyond" adventures (although not located in BoB areas but in Odessa).

I recommend reading the stories of Isaac Babel

Some of his works have been translated in French very long ago; I think I did read "Red
Cavalry" many years ago... The "Odessa Tales" are also known but I don't think I've read them - I surely will!

Without subtitles I understand about 50% of what they say in Russian (I forgot most of what I learnt at school as 2nd foreign language) but it's almost enough to follow the plot. :)

Chapaev (1934) movie

This film is based on the book about Vasili Ivanovich Chapaev (1887 - 1919) who was in real life the Commander of the 25th Division of the Red Army. Chapaev is an uneducated peasant and a decorated hero in the World War I and later in the Russian Civil War, that followed the Russian revolution. This man of action is fighting on the side of the poor people. His troops consist of peasants, just like him. Unable to write, he can brilliantly demonstrate various battle tactics by moving potatoes on the table. He is street smart. He never lost a battle against the experienced Generals of the Tzar's Army.

I think I've seen this Chapaev movie once ...but very long ago! ...in the 1980's ...at a very late hour, on the French TV...

...in these years the French TV did show some Soviet films in "Ciné club" programs, late in the nigth - as if it were an old museum thing!

I suspect it was an excuse, they would not have been allowed to do it in the main TV programs in these days.

This is quite funny (or sad) when we talk about it now. Film making in the USSR was certainly under state control. But they made good movies. Which were not fairly broadcasted in the West, as they should have been.

Yes, indeed, in the USSR many good feature films were shot. They, of course, often had some Soviet propaganda, but this does not detract from their artistic merits.
In addition, «Chapayev» accurately reproduces real events. The book on which this film was made is written by Furmanov, who was a commissar in Chapaev's division.

And in these films there are magnificent battle scenes. The attack of the tachankas in the film «Alexa Dundich» is excellent. Although in the artistic (and historical) aspect, it is much lower than the movie «Chapayev».

As musical instruments - real guns, machine guns, factory, locomotive and steamer hooters, tractors, airplanes ... These people really lived in a different dimension and thought in other categories!
Have patience - the introduction is not very impressive, in my opinion.

Cuprum,

Slightly off-topic but you're probably a good man to ask. Have they ever made a film/ TV series of Yuri Olesha's 'Envy'?

I remember reading it at university and I was absorbed by it. Seems it would have been an unlikely subject for a film treatment under the Soviet but maybe something has been produced since?

Alas, in the post-Soviet Russia this novel was not filmed. In the USSR, a two-part TV-version play on this novel was made in 1967.

An excellent Soviet feature film: "Its among strangers - a stranger among their own."

The action of this psychological detective occurs in the 20s in a small provincial town in the south of Russia. The civil war is over, but the peace has not yet come. Hunger, destruction, many criminal gangs. The bandits robbed a Soviet train with gold intended for buying bread for the starving regions of the country. Suspicion fell on one of five friends, former brother-soldiers of the Red Army. Now in order to return his good name, he must return the stolen gold...

To view it, go to Youtube. Do not forget to include English subtitles.

Yes, it is a well. It is usually closed so that it does not blow dust and debris.

An interesting point in the first video - salvo shooting at the machine gun. The machine gun crews were apparently put out of action by the very first volley and this made the Bolsheviks retreat.

The training and experience of the officer units was the highest. The company in the second episode is commanded by a general(!). In the initial period of the war, undisiplined detachments of the Bolsheviks were easily destroyed by the officer detachments, despite the overwhelming superiority of the Bolsheviks in numbers.

If you are familiar with the books by Ilya Ilf and Evgeny Petrov "The Twelve Chairs" and "The Little Golden Calf" about the adventures of the great swindler Ostap Bender in Soviet Russia during the NEP, then you will probably be interested to watch the prequel to this story. The feature film "Bender - the Beginning" was released in Russia.
The film tells about Ibrahim Bender, a born savvy swindler who will also act as a mentor to the famous Ostap Zadunaisky (the future Ostap Bender, whose adoptive father and teacher was the swindler Ibrahim Bender), who has yet to become a great schemer, having learned all the tricks, tricks and business the grasp of his adoptive father.
   The main target of the two swindlers is the treasure of the Russian Empire - a golden rod with diamonds, which they are going to steal. The action takes place during the Civil War in Russia. Obstacles on the way of the two great swindlers are both white and red and just bandits.
