Videos Burnt by the Sun

[Oskar]

Burnt by the Sun is a Russian movie based in the 1930's where the two main male leads (Dimitri and Commander Kotov) embody a lot of high quality characteristics. They are both highly skilled in a variety of fields, yet act content, cheerful, and modest (even though they both love the same woman and have a dark past between them). All of the characters are highly pro-social actually, and for that reason alone this is a movie worth watching. In particular, there is an attitude of contented playfulness that I take away from some of the characters, which I try and apply to myself in social situations.
