July Rain / Iyulskiy dozhd Series: Envisioning Russia: A Century of Filmmaking [Jan 25 - Feb 14 2008] Director: Marlen Khutsiyev, Country: USSR, Release: 1966, Runtime: 109 Like the French and other New Waves of the time, the new Soviet cinema of the ‘60s often featured a bold mixture of documentary and fiction, making each film an invaluable record of its moment. A kind of Soviet Masculin féminine, July Rain is an engaging portrait of ‘60s Moscow youth — the first generation to have grown up far from the shadows of war and Stalinist repression. Lena (Yevgeniya Uralova) and Volodya (Aleksandr Belyavsky) are a young couple in the throes of marriage when Lena decides that her fiancé is not the man she thought he was. The break-up causes her to reflect on her life and to wonder about the kind of world she and other members of her generation are set to inherit. Then, during a cooling rain, she meets Zhenya... Endowed with a loose, spontaneous feeling, July Rain is full of small but telling incidents, as well as surprising observations of life in Moscow. The well-loved soundtrack features the work of Yuri Vizbor (who also plays one of the major roles), Bulat Okudjava and other pop superstars of the ‘60s.
