About Men and Jobs
An American engineer, consulting on a Soviet construction project, inspires a backward and timid new foreman to learn better about his job, assert himself, solve problems and inspire his own men to bring the job in ahead of schedule.
Directed by Aleksandr Macheret, Men and Jobs leans on a strong ensemble — Nikolai Okhlopkov, Viktor Stanitsyn, Alexander Geirot — 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 drama titles of 1932.
