The white ship will slice through the waves and move right towards you.\"  This shimmering dream sustains her into adulthood when she’s played by the luminous \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAnastasiya Vertinskaya\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (WAR \u0026amp; PEACE, THE AMPHIBIAN MAN).  The second story revolves around Arthur, the rebellious son of an aristocrat, who only dreams of shipwrecks, pirates and going off to sea – as an adult he’s played by popular Soviet actor \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVasiliy Lanovoy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (WAR \u0026amp; PEACE, ANNA KARENINA).  Ptushko’s films are filled with images of the sea and voyages, in SADKO, SAMPO and THE TALE OF TSAR SALTAN, and this is his most lyrical homage to the lore and lure of the ocean:  windmills framed in the darkening sky, bonfires flickering on cliffs, storm-tossed waves crashing to shore, faces bathed in red firelight like a Caravaggio painting.  SCARLET SAILS was Ptushko’s follow-up to SAMPO, and the two films are companion pieces in many ways, both brilliantly shot by the cinematography team of Gennadi Tsekavyj and Viktor Yakushev.  And we defy you not to weep at the film’s stunning climax, arguably the most purely emotional sequence in all of Ptushko’s filmography.  Beautifully restored by Mosfilm in 4K for its first-ever U.S. Blu-ray release by Deaf Crocodile, in association with Seagull Films.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn Russian with English subtitles.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb id=\"x_gmail-docs-internal-guid-0d5ad6c7-7fff-aee9-fe1f-8d592fcf6793\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecial Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;\"\u003e48-page booklet featuring new essays by Russian film historian Peter Rollberg and film critic Walter Chaw \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNew video conversation with Eisner Award-winning comics artist (\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSwamp Thing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e), film historian and author Stephen R.
