The only two movies I remember by name were "Ballad of a Soldier" and "The 
Cranes Are Flying."

Everyone in my family: parents, xtian grandparents, jewish grandparents had 
a radio, but the radio got a number of stations. I grew up glued to it, and 
they had some great programs: lots of radio plays of the classics: I 
remember Dumas, Twaine, Dickens, Gogol, Gaidar, Hugo...

Sorry can't help more,
