Top 100 Most Anticipated Films of 2010: Nikita Mikhalkov’s The Exodus – The Fortress: Burnt By The Sun 2
The first film won the Grand Prize at the Cannes Film Festival and the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film in 94, and while I yet to see it, I'm wondering how Mikhalkov will bring his beloved characters into a post-war premise and if he'll make some kind of social commentary about current day politics.
