Directed by Aleksandr Stolper, The Alive and the Dead leans on a strong ensemble — Kirill Lavrov, Anatoliy Papanov, Aleksey Glazyrin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about war titles of 1964.
