Review of Vienui vieni

Vienui vieni (2004)
Worth seeing
17 August 2005
Although the cast is great (Saulius Balandis, Rolandas Kazlas, Vladas Bagdonas, Ramunas Rudokas and others), theater director Jonas Vaitkus fails in cinematography at some points of making an interesting war/drama movie. Maybe that is because the creators chose wrong format - maybe it should have been mini-series instead of 90 minutes to fit the whole story?... However the movie is worth seeing. Firstly - for the great camera work (Algimantas Mikutenas), secondly - for the wonderful soundtrack (Kipras Masanauskas), thirdly - for it is the first movie in history to depict (at least at some extent) the post-war genocide brought upon Lithuanian nation by Soviet occupants.
