To be honest, you have listed all the most classic Russian films. :) I would say Russia specializes more in TV serials, at least it seems to me there is a greater quantity of those than movies. Examples include Brigada, Esenin, Sherlock Holmes, Master & Margerita, Ten Little Indians. You may...
In my family we normally make huge batches of both savory(beef, cabbage, mushroom, diced egg, and any combination thereof) & sweet (fruit and or raisins), but I don't think potato is a common appearance. I know it is very popular for pierogis which I also like. :) In any case, potato makes a...
I would count most Russian foods as comforts for me, but piroshki especially. The smell of them baking is enough to make me literally go weak kneed.
And sometimes there is just nothing like good tomato soup and grilled cheese. I think that is a nostalgic favorite for many people.

Was he really? That's actually quite a bit taller than I always thought of him as. But I don't think his height, whatever it was, detracted from his appeal. Such a talent, and that he was so handsome and suave is just a bonus.
My personal favorite from the Golden Era is Tyrone Power. And the...
The very same! He is my personal favorite tenor, followed by Domingo. Bastianini was Corelli's contemporary, only Baritone with a capital B!
There are several clips of their duets on youtube, here's one that is particularly tremendous, from La Forza del Destino (another personal favorite!)...
