So, 'Myth About Leonid' is a pretty intriguing piece from '91, though the director's name escapes me. It dives into a version of Kirov's murder, which is a real rabbit hole if you’re into Soviet history. The film has this gritty, almost claustrophobic atmosphere that really makes you feel the tension of the era. The pacing can be a bit slow, but it builds a sense of dread and paranoia that’s quite effective. The performances are really compelling, particularly the portrayal of Orlov, which adds a layer of authenticity. There's a certain rawness to the practical effects that adds to the overall feel. It’s definitely a film that invites discussion, especially among history buffs.
Explores a lesser-known angle of Soviet history. · Strong focus on character and atmosphere. · Interesting for those studying the Kirov case.
