re your tags about generational talents and misogyny, it's 'almost all' because something weird happened in 2015, right? and Mitch Marner got hit with all the misogyny instead? (I mean I wasn't following hockey at the time so I could be entirely wrong about this. but. there's definitely something there.)
yeah, there’s absolutely that, and mitch marner is definitely a whole subsection in that drafted post i have lying around, but when i said that “almost all generational talents have been the first male victim of misogyny” i was actually referring to Lemieux and Howe (and McDavid to a lesser degree, but that one’s a bit weird and ties into Mitch Marner). Gordie “Mr. Hockey” Howe was an absolute specimen of a man, held all of the records before Gretzky, and is commonly thought of as the first “generational player” in the NHL. He mostly did it through longevity (played for 26 seasons into his 50s), but he was a good fucking player, too. He was a very masculine clean-cut farm boy. He also originated the “Gordie Howe Hat-Trick” which is a goal, an assist, and a fight in a game.
Lemieux was not as physical a player (not saying much for the 80s…) but he was tall and broad. he was unreasonably fast and played like he was a foot shorter than he was (silky mitts, extremely fluid stickhandling) but that didn’t change the fact that he was definitely a mountain of a guy and definitely fell more into the standards of classical masculinity at the time.
Those two are more or less the outliers when it comes to generational talents though; it’s pretty interesting that otherwise they’re almost always: too pretty, too small, don’t fight enough, etc.
But yeah, if you’re curious, re: “the first male victim of misogyny”, the hockey generational talents that i personally think are relevant for the topic are: Valeri Kharlamov, Wayne Gretzky, Steve Yzerman, Sidney Crosby (ft. Alex Ovechkin), and Mitch Marner. It’s still in the drafting stages, and there’s also probably an interesting side note to be made about Bedard. I started writing the post one evening in a fit of inspiration and have just been swamped irl ever since. my schedule’s cleared up recently though, so i might sit down and finish it up

Blog 5 Final Entry
The Film I chose to view for my final blog post was a Russian Bibliography sports film called Legend no. 17 which was released in the year of 2013. The Film was highly successful and was nominated for 24 awards and won 14 of them. The Film was based on true events in the 1970’s about a young Russian man named Valeri Kharlamov who goes by the name of Valera in the movie and he was dedicated to the game of Hockey and his teammates success. He was a player for the Russian Professional Hockey team CSKA Moscow whom was also seeking to make the Russian or USSR National team to play in the 1972 Olympics against Canada. This film arguably was one of my favorite sports films I have seen before. This film was directed by Nikolay Lebedev who was also Russian, and I thought he did a tremendous job. One thing I thought he did very well was expressing the effort that athletes put into the game. He showed the pain Valera needed to go through as well as the strength and courage needed to get to where he got to. He does this by going deep into the relationship Valeri has with his coach, Tarasov. For example, Valeri during practice was challenged by his coach when he was told to defend the net during shooting practice without padding on. He was repetitively taking hockey pucks to his body until his coach was satisfied. Afterwards it flashed to him crying and taking a shower in the locker room with cuts and bruising all over is body. Valeri also was benched numerous games despite being the best player on the team. He also in my opinion did a very good job with the quality of his shots, especially when Valera was playing in his games. Similar to what Ang Lee has showed us in his movie Crouching Tiger, The Hidden Dragon that I researched in my other blog entry from China, I feel Nikolay Lebedev did a great job with expressing physicality in cinema and being able to give clear shots in an action scene. It is cool to also see the development of how directors and producers choose to film those scenes that have extreme physicality and how much improvement we have seen from past decades on how they are shot. Despite Crouching Tiger, The Hidden Dragon being well known for its advancement in physicality and clearness but it is also a downgrade from what was presented in the Russian film I just viewed despite their only being a 12 year gap between their release dates. This film was viewed very positively from critics and viewers as it was such a great film as I had mentioned despite it only having a 7.4 out of 10 rating on IMBD and a 70 percent audience rating. One thing mentioned by an article from New East Cinema Symposium from Pittsburgh University was about how much of a role that the choices of the cast made in this film. And how well each cast member played their character to make this Bibliography film realistic and successful. Critics also felt that this film was a great sentimental piece to film as Valeri Kharlamov unfortunately passed away in a tragic car accident in 1981 after being told he was going to be not playing for the USSR national Hockey team for the Canada Cup. Valeri has a special place in the hockey world especially in Russia for his achievements he had made. Overall this was a great film and has a huge impact on not only sports cinema but the cinema industry as a whole. Legend no. 17 perfectly resembled how to implement character development and cinematography into a sports film and I hope people and future directors look back on this film when creating new bibliography films.

#oh this is so cool g i did not know any of this about khrlamov or his parents @brockachu
oh please let me introduce you to one of hockey's cutest families and great romances
Tumblr media
[1. Begonia Hermona Orive Abad Barahona Arrans/Begonita Kharlamova. 2. Valeri, Begonita, and Tatiana Kharlamov in the mountains outside the town of Bilbao in Basque country, where they lived with Begonita's parents in the 1950s.]
Begonita was originally named Begonia Orive Abad. Her father was a Republican on the run from Franco during the Spanish civil war; her mother would soon be imprisoned. As quickly as they could they sent her away from Basque country as one of 2,895 child refugees known as los Niños de Rusia or the Children of Russia, being staged in orphanages along the way until they could finally by evacuated to Saratov and then to Moscow. Initially beloved and welcomed in the Soviet Union, conditions for the Children changed as they grew up and Spain and the Soviet Union entered into WWII, now on opposing sides. The USSR declared that it would never "give children into the hands of the predatory Francoist regime." For years the Children were restricted from returning to Spain because of the war.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[1. Begonia, right, with another girl at one of the orphanages on the way to the USSR. 2. Star pilot Valery Chkalov visiting the Children]
When she was finally free to return, she left her young children with Boris. Lost on the distantly-familiar street outside the train station, she bumped into an elderly man--her father. She hadn't known whether or not her parents were still alive.
That left her with a pretty shitty choice.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Boris was a technician in a mechanical factory in the district of Moscow where many of the Spanish refugees ended up living and working during WWII. Begonita was working there too as a lab assistant in the chemical division. He played on the factory's football and bandy teams, and captained both. He had recently broken up with one of the Spanish girls at the factory, when they all attended a factory social dance. A mutual friend had been threatening to introduce Begonita, who was shy and struggled with both Russian and anxiety, to one of the boys. It turned out Begonita didn't like that boy nearly as much as his friend.
According to Begonita, she saw the curly-haired boy still in workboots across the dance hall and asked her friends, "Who is that?"
"A guy from the machine shop. Kharlamov or something," they told her, and she decided she had to talk to that guy.
According to Boris, he saw the short girl standing by the wall, a little apart from her friends laughing and dancing, and went over to be nice. When a tango came on, he told her, "Buenas noches," and invited her to dance.
He walked her home after, and they soon began dating, in their way. "We met when her shift and mine ended," Boris remembered. "We'd sit, have a cup of tea and go for a walk along the Moscow streets. I came home only at midnight. I spent all my free time with her. She had a very lovely voice, she loved to sing songs in her native language."
At the factory New Year's party in 1948, Begonita sang for the whole crowd. Then she suddenly doubled over, feeling the sudden pangs of labor.
You couldn't find an ambulance on New Year's for love or money. Another Spanish refugee named Monge, who drove the factory trucks, volunteered to take her to the hospital.
Tumblr media
[Monge and Valeri]
Boris packed her in Monge's truck and was left rushing after them on the street.  
I remember that it was very cold outside. The metro was not running yet. I took her things, a small bundle, twisted it into a bundle. I was soon arrested by the police. 
I was in my father's [Army] overcoat without shoulder straps, looking like a deserter. They ask for documents. "Which documents?" I answer them.
 “Let's go to the police station,” the policemen say. Thank God, I think to myself, I’ll at least get warm now, and when the metro opens, I’ll leave. 
We got to the station, the policemen asked: “What do you have inside the bundle?”
 I tell them: "Look for yourself, there are my wife's things, she is now giving birth in the hospital." I took out the documents, which, of course, I had, showed them to the policemen. 
“Why didn’t you say it before?” They were outraged. 
I smiled and replied: “The subway opens at six in the morning, I wanted to warm up at your place.” They laughed and asked if I had any other children. 
I answered them: "I'm waiting, not yet." 
“Then we wish you a boy,” the policemen said, admonishing me.
When he finally got to the hospital, he learned that they had a new son. They named him after the first Russian Begonita had met--pilot Valeri Chkalov, who had welcomed her and the other refugees to the USSR.
As the war finally would down and negotiations between Spain and the USSR resumed, they were able to marry, three months after Valeri was born. Their daughter Tatiana was born the next year.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[Boris, Begonita, and their first two children. Note that Valeri is the eldest sibling; his sister Tatiana appears bigger and older than him in later pictures because Valeri was very, very small.]
Begonita understood Russian, but never spoke it without stumbles and constant conjugation errors. Boris only spoke a little Spanish. But they settled into a communal apartment with a few other families in one of the housing blocks where the refugees and other immigrants lived. Valeri grew up barely hearing his father speak: Boris understood that Spanish would be the household language, and seemed to think that if that meant he was the odd one out who couldn't talk, that was fair enough. When both of them worked, an older couple in an apartment across the housing block yard from theirs would shout through both open windows in Spanish to the children, keeping an eye on them, as did an Italian family a few windows down and other neighbors.
Tumblr media
[Boris and Valeri]
When Begonita finally got the papers that would allow her to travel from the USSR and return to Spain to search for her parents, Boris agreed she should leave him.
[there will be a part 2 on Friday evening because I cannot be stopped with these photos]

Russian MOVIES on Netflix
Tumblr media
I'm Losing Weight
It is not a comedy at all, but a very ironic drama with elements of humor.
Alexandra Bortich (the actress) brilliantly entered the image and showed all the stiffness, shame and guilt of people losing weight. And the audience, who went through it, claimed that the situations from the film constantly happened to them in life.
Tumblr media
Territory
This is one of those films that is definitely worth watching in high quality. Its main treasure is the shooting in Chukotka and Krasnoyarsk Territory with their stunning landscapes and nature. The characters in "Territory" are Soviet engineers who must search for tin deposits.
"Territory" can hardly be called a classic thriller. Rather, it is a strong drama about human greed against a backdrop of beautiful nature.
Tumblr media
Legend #17
Legend #17 – was a real breakthrough for Russian sports cinema in general and one of the important milestones of Danila Kozlovsky's career. It was already after the actor drifted into mediocre cinema. For the role of the great hockey player Valery Kharlamov, he trained hard and played hard.
Tumblr media
Three seconds
The story of the legendary match between the USSR and USA basketball teams at the Olympics-72, the outcome of which was decided in the last three seconds.
Sports drama. A movie of high achievements (first place in the list of the highest-grossing Russian movies of all time), with pathos-laden dramaturgy: it is not the Americans who play the role of the domestic basketball players' main adversary, but the Soviet authorities, who did even more than the Americans to prevent our athletes from winning.
Tumblr media
The Crew
Talented young pilot Alexei Gushchin does not recognize authority, preferring to act in accordance with his personal code of honor. For ignoring an absurd order he is kicked out of military aviation, and only by a miracle he gets a chance to fly civilian planes.
On the edge of life and death, when the earth is going out from under their feet, all around are fire and ashes, and only in the sky is salvation, Gushchin shows everything he can do. Only together can the crew accomplish a feat and save hundreds of lives.
Tumblr media
Major Grom: The Plague Doctor
All the evil in the film comes from social networks (though, instead of "VKontakte" (famous Russian social network) the fictional network "VMeste" appears), the villain is a local Paul Durov, who fancies himself as Batman, and his followers are rioters who rock the boat.
Tumblr media
Chernobyl 1986
The Russian response to the HBO series "Chernobyl". The Kremlin gives its own version of the tragedy. Plot: After reuniting with a lost love, firefighter Alexey retires to begin a new life -- but the Chernobyl disaster suddenly plunges him back into danger. (And again Legend 17 movie star...)
