I cannot imagine being in a war of such magnitude, I'm sure my chances of survival would have been very small. It makes a single human life seem very insignificant.
Excuse me.
I thought that Mosfilm will be very careful when processing these movies.

Some of these movies have English subtitles, while others do not have them. I wrote several times to Mosfilm asking them to make subtitles for the second part, and then wrote to the Ministry of Culture. None of them answered me. So I do not know if my letters affected the advent of English subtitles in the second part of the movie.

For the third part there are subtitles but only Serbian
So I already wrote a letter to Mosfilm about the third part.
