Minin and Pozharsky (Russian: Минин и Пожарский, translit. Minin i Pozharskiy) is a 1939 Soviet historical drama directed by Vsevolod Pudovkin and Mikhail Doller, based on Viktor Shklovsky's novel "Russians at the Beginning of the XVII Century".
The film is about the Time of Troubles, Russia's struggle for independence led by Dmitry Pozharsky and Kuzma Minin against the Polish invasion in 1611–1612. It was the first of several important Soviet films to show Poland as an aggressor.[1]
In 1941, Pudovkin, Doller, Livanov, and Khanov received the Stalin Prize.
