Editing Guidelines

Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article:

If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film)
- For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films)
When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references.
Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

This article is innacurate. It states the movie was recorded on film. It was actually recorded onto a hard disk. So says the documentary on the DVD. — Hippietrail 03:04, 13 Jun 2004 (UTC) --I think this is referring to some text that has been removed since. --Geke 09:46, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

anyone care to comment on "The information was recorded directly onto hard disk. The disk could hold 100 minutes of information. But it could not be recorded over. - it's a hard drive, not a record. what's the source for this? 192.223.226.6 17:34, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it doesn't sound right, and I couldn't find any confirmation for it. Also: there were a few false starts during the shoot, so they very probably did record over the previous take. Because it doesn't add too much anyway, I just removed it. There's some details on the production at http://www.russianark.spb.ru/eng/news_archive.html The thing about compressed vs non-compressed is in an interview with Sergey Ivanov at the same site. --Geke 09:46, 4 March 2007 (UTC)Geke 09:32, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Also, how on earth can the final ballroom scene be in 1913 if Alexander Pushkin is one of the guests? He is shown descending the stairs with this wife.

If I understand the film correctly, the final scene with people descending the stairs is not a view of some moment in time, but symbolic. It shows ALL the people that we have seen in the previous scenes leaving the Hermitage, as all animals and people left Noah's Ark after the deluge was over, to go and populate the world. --Geke 10:19, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
