The Color of Pomegranates




I've been taking advantage of "public domain" films (that's what Maggie's dad calls them) on You Tube and other sharing websites to improve my Russian. Sometimes you can even find them with quite good English translations. I grabbed the picture above as a screenshot from the film Sayat Nova (US title: Color of Pomegranates), which is a simply beautiful film directed by Sergei Parajanov about the life of the Armenian poet Sayat Nova, or Harutyun Sayatyan. I'd recommend.
