More on Alexander Nevsky
I wrote earlier that I watched the Russian movie Alexander Nevsky and liked it. I thought it interesting how the Germans were depicted in the movie. I didn’t mention the star of the movie Alexander Nevsky played by Nikolai Cherkasov. Nikolai Cherkasov later played Ivan the Terrible and Franklin D. Roosevelt. (in the movie Stalingradskaya Bitva.)
I didn’t think him too handsome in Ivan Groznyy, but he looks like an Adonis in the movie Alexander Nevsky. Maybe it is the bright shining glow around his face and the breeze blowing his golden locks. As he is the hero, he is supposed to be the most handsome and the most virtuous of all. I hero like that would not be popular in today’s movies.
Alexander Nevsky was a real Russian hero and was later made a saint.
