I actually do appreciate the spelling correction since I obviously was mispelling the word on purpose (as opposed to a simple typing error). Although, you did take the time to comment and then not make any observations of the concept, which frankly I am a little dissapointed in you. I am only saying this because you repeated the offense once, otherwise I would not even waste my time. Thanks H·a·nn·i·bal.

There are a lot of young people who will feel no tension in that conflict. I will try to come up with something new. Maybe China? The war itself isn't the point, it simply sets the backdrop. Nevertheless, it's important for the backdrop to be relevant to today's society. This way the film is able to be understood in a contextual matter. Good point on US vs. russia being played out.

The war itself isn’t the point, it simply sets the backdrop. Nevertheless, it’s important for the backdrop to be relevant to today’s society. This way the film is able to be understood in a contextual matter.

Usually I tire of movies or scenes with little dialogue (which I like to blame on porr acting, but very possibly may be due to my short attention span), however, I loved the poetic narration. And I enjoyed the idea of a love developed in contrast to reckless passion. But of course, you did not ask for opinions on this movie, I just found it refreshing that someone else liked it (I don't think my mother quite understood what was going on). As to your film idea, I was initially surprised when I read it because it wasn't what I expected. The concept sounds good, though I wonder if the US/Russia tensions have too much of a been-there-done-that feel, but then again, it makes sense, considering Russia was our "space rival" since the beginning. It sounds, too, like it has great potential for a portrayal at societies where innocent patriotism has become mordant ethnocentrism... First: I absolutely loved The New World.
