Tuntematon sotilas (The Unknown Soldier). 1985. Finland. Directed by Rauni Mollberg. Screenplay by Veikko Aaltonen, Väinö Linna. With Risto Tuorila, Pirkka-Pekka Petelius, Paavo Liski, Mika Mäkelä, Pertti Koivula, Tero Niva. In Finnish; English subtitles. 35mm. 199 min. "There they stood, these victims chosen by Mother Finland for world history." Released in 1954, Väino Linna’s novel The Unknown Soldier begins in 1941 and ends in 1944, following a platoon of Finnish machine-gunners who must make their way into the Soviet Union via the Karelian Front. Often branded Finland’s All’s Quiet on the Western Front, the book was heralded as a literary masterpiece and adapted for the screen a year after publication by filmmaker Edvin Laine. But Laine’s rendition was understood as a work of chest-thumping nationalism, designed to lift the spirits of a country still traumatized by its unique position during the War, having fended off the invading Soviet Union in the Winter War of 1939-40, onto to semi-forcibly ally with Germany in the “Continuation War” of 1941-44. Three decades later, maverick filmmaker Rauni Mollberg’s The Unknown Soldier was the biggest-budgeted Finnish film of all time and a box office sensation across Scandinavia; its location photography, gritty handheld camerawork and lack of exegetic music spoke to Mollberg’s ambition to depict war as hell, as did his hiring of Linna to co-author the screenplay. Assisting Mollberg was the 23-year-old Ilkka Järvi-Laturi, who also...

Missing: movie | Show results with:movie
Film, based on the same-titled bestseller by Vaino Linna, has actually no plot and may be better classified as a documentary report. It is a recklessly open and hard-hitting production about victory and defeat and life and death of Finnish soldiers during the last war. The camera follows a group of soldiers and shows via very impressive scenes how they go through the murderous phase of modern warfare.
