Enemy at the Gates (4/9) Movie CLIP - Nikita Khrushchev (2001) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
A disappointed Khrushchev (Bob Hoskins) addresses his officers after they fail to take Stalingrad back from the Germans.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
A turning point in 20th century war history is the focus of this fact-based account of the 1942-1943 battle of Stalingrad, in which the Germans were finally defeated by Russian influence -- one of the bloodiest battles in World War II history. The film stars Jude Law as Vassili, a marksman from the Urals who is transported to Stalingrad in 1942, and a master German sniper, Major Koenig (Ed Harris). Koenig, an expert German sniper, is determined to eliminate his formidable opponent by any means necessary; meanwhile, Vassili has joined forces with Danilov (Joseph Fiennes), a young Russian political adversary, who is impressed by Vassili's skills and raises his profile in the Soviet Union. Both Vassili and Danilov become involved with Tanya (Rachel Weisz), whose Jewish parents have been captured by the Germans and have forced her to take up with the men on a sniper expedition. Koenig and Vassili begin to develop traps for each other, until fate inevitably must bring the two sharpshooters together. This large-scale production, financed mostly by Teuton companies, also features Bob Hoskins as Nikita Krushchev and Ron Perlman as an aging Russian sniper.

You guys couldn’t allow an extra ten seconds for the scene to conclude?

[WeaselKing]

"Yes. We need to make examples. But examples to fol – TWINKLE TWINKLE THAT'S ENOUGH IT'S THE MOVIECLIPS THEME'S TIME TO SHINE"

[Varianna]

Best line left out of clip:
"and do you know any heroes around here?"
"Yes, comrade, I know one."

[Mike]

The greatest "He said that, not me" look in cinema history.

[darkstorm]

1:38 can't stop laughing when he points with his eye

[dieseljester]

This has to be one of Bob Hoskins' best performances ever. The man was an artist and made the best of whatever script and role he was handed.

[BasePuma]

That actor even kinda looks like Khrushchev...

[sadmanpranto]

The coolest historically inaccurate movie...

[leavemealoneyoutube]

When I first saw this scene I kept wondering "Where's Chuikov? Zhukov? Yerememko? Rokossovsky? Krushchev wasn't in charge. He was political commissar but not the commander.

[coyotegamer]

1:25 d d d d d d d deport the families 😂

[michaellynes]

Khrushchev was present at the Battle of Stalingrad, but Vasily Chuikov, commander of the 62nd Army, was in charge of Stalingrad’s defenses.

[ruuuuudooooolph]

0:21 Stallin disguised himself as one of the officers to check on them.

[xmMoyocoyatzin]

They sure made Khrushchev look like one badass motherfucker in this movie

[shrubby-ovyw]

That soft quiet demeanour coupled with that bear snarl of a voice. Listen to recordings of Khrushchev. Hoskins nailed this man

[jackspry]

RIP Bob Hoskins (October 26, 1942 – April 29, 2014), aged 71
You will always be remembered as a legend.

[Oly]

He doesn’t look anything like Steve Buscemi !

[deansherratt]

Hoskins captures the character of Nikita Khrushchev  very well...he was an earthy kind of guy. He's quite convincing...a great role.

[rinck]

Shortly after this, Kruschev threw a shoe at the Germans.

[bobbyg]

So unique how he says “Stalingrad” in a growling voice! Evil exists many will die!

[carlos]

STALINGRRRRAD!!! Love his gravelly voice.
