The Dawns Here Are Quiet (1972)
Member Rating:  
It is a little-known fact that during World War II a small number of Soviet women actively served in combat. This film takes us into the lives of a small detachment of such women, and combines war action footage with gentler moments, such as when they kick their (male) sergeant out of the barracks for complaining that they don't wear enough clothes there. The story of their combat is interspersed with their memories of their husbands and civilian lives. The main combat sequence places them in conflict with a German patrol which was trying for a surprise attack on Russian positions. This film was nominated for an Oscar as "Best Foreign Film" in 1972. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

    I thoroughly enjoyed this film, mainly because of the emphasis on the different relationships between the women soldiers and also the women with their male commander. This movie had everything it was touching, action packed, and I thought that some of the dream sequences were hilarious.

    I cannot believe that nobody had rated this movie yet. It has a true life excellent plot about women's courage, love and faith in one another. I can watch this movie many times and every time I think of something or someone whom I can relate. It is trully a must see Russian classic!
