In the Kino Lorber thread, 'RichardBurton84' posted the URL to an eight-minute documentary from Mosfilm about their current film restoration projects.
I'm reposting it here for the benefit of people who missed it in that thread.
The most exciting aspect for me is the mouth-watering prospect of seeing on Blu ray what appear, from this evidence, to be excellent restoration of the two 'Ivan the Terrible' movies and 'Alexander Nevsky' ... both films notable not just for Eisenstein's work, but also for the outstanding soundtracks composed by Sergei Prokofiev. Bring them on soon, please, while my rapidly-fading eyesight will still let me enjoy them!
