greenreed,

I have taken the liberty of adapting your posts into a page on my website. I hope you don't mind.

Do you know anything about these other Russian Bradbury films:

Trinadtsatyj apostol
Vel'd

Erm...Battleship Potemkin? Saw it in a film history class. Sergei Eisenstein is arguably the father of modern film editing.

I have watched this film several days ago. Rather good film. Well-done operator's job - point of view chages all the time, floats and moves. And special light effect makes it all shine - full of sun and air. Film is made for children, so it is sometimes too funny and excentric. But mostly it looks good. Smoktunovsky is great.

(Things i don't like are music (no melodies, and it is all dull) and the fact, tyhat film is too long and goes slow.

fjp451, as promised, above is the series of prior Ray Bradbury Forum postings relating to the Russian film version of DANDELION WINE, with most of the information provided by greenreed, a member from Russia.
