	Alexander Nevsky - free-definition (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Nevsky was in charge of defending the northwest lands of Russia from Swedish and German invaders.
		Nevsky faced the enemy on the ice of the Lake Chud (Чудское озеро in Russian) and crushed the Teutonic Knights during the Battle on the Ice on April 5, 1242.
		Nevsky's great victory against the Teutonic Order apparently involved only a few knights killed rather than the hundreds claimed by the Russian chroniclers; decisive medieval and early modern battles were won and lost with small forces to modern eyes.

		Aleksandr acquired the surname that commemorates his first victory--but was forced to retire from Novgorod just one year later, by the endlessly-squabbling town council, when he chose to depart rather than use military force to rule.
		Aleksandr traveled to the Khan's court at Sarai to plead for his brother's life, and out of respect for Aleksandr the sentence of death was commuted to exile.
		Nevsky made one more journey to Sarai in 1262, to convince the new Khan to rescind a new tax and military levy that was about to cause another revolt.

	Aleksandr Nevsky (1938)
		An intentionally epic retelling of the pivotal 13th Century conflict between Russia and the Teutonic knights, Aleksandr Nevsky is rich in propaganda.
		A significant problem for Aleksandr Nevsky is that because the arduous battle is so stunning in its impact, the remainder of the movie lies in shadow.
		During the battle, indeed throughout the rest of the film, Aleksandr Nevsky paints a highly believable picture of Medieval society; the clothes are rough and functional, the buildings either solid towers or ramshackle huts and the weapons bluntly deadly.

		Alexander Nevsky, Sergei Eisenstein's landmark tale of Russia thwarting the German invasion of the 13th century, was wildly popular with home-grown audiences back in 1938, quite intentionally so, given the prevailing Nazi geopolitical advancement and destruction at the time.
		"Alexander Nevsky" (1938) is a film-child born of its era, struggling with the transition from silent to sound and steeped in a Stalinist Soviet tradition.
		Alexander Nevsky was a Russian leader who fought off invading Swedes, Poles, and Germans, at a time when his country was most threatened by the Tartars - they exacted an annual tribute to ensure their continued passivity.

		The German Livonian Knights invade Russia and are met in battle by Aleksandr Nevsky.
		Although frequently overdone, Sergei Eisenstein's Aleksandr Nevsky is such a visually stunning film that it is often genuinely captivating.
		The director's images of Russian heroes silhouetted against the sky or of Livonian Knights kneeling in the snow before their leaders' crownlike tent are potent and memorable, stirring up, respectively, feelings of a free-spirited bravery and a brutish submissiveness.

	GreenCine \| product main - Alexander Nevsky (1938)
		Like many of Eisenstein's best films, Alexander Nevsky was conceived as a morale-booster, aimed at stirring up Russian patriotism.
		It is set in the 13th century, but the villainous Teutonic Knights are obviously meant to represent the burgeoning threat of Hitler's hordes.
		The saving turnaround for Nevsky is the battle of ice-covered Lake Peipus in 1242.
