Ilya Muromets
“Eye-Filling Spectacle! Man Against Monsters! The Largest Cast Ever Used in a Motion Picture! A cast of 106,000! 11,000 horses!”
Ilya Muromets (Boris Andreyev) has been unable to walk since birth, and he lies helpless while barbarians plunder his village. Then a mysterious traveler arrives with a magic elixir that restores his strength, and he sets out to protect the village and the royal family of Prince Vladimir (Andrei Abrikosov). Aleksandr Ptushko, adapting the old Russian oral epics at Mosfilm, fills the screen with a knight, a beast, and a Russia built from legend.
