Three Russian Girls (1943)
Directed by Fyodor Otsep, Henry S. Kesler
Overview
Another of a wartime cycle of Hollywood films lauding the praises of America’s Soviet allies, Three Russian Girls is a remake of Russia’s The Girl From Stalingrad. Set just after the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, the film stars Anna Sten as Natasha, a Red Cross volunteer who is dispatched to a field hospital located in an old pre-revolution mansion. American test pilot John Hill (Kent Smith), who’d been in Russia on a goodwill mission, is wounded in battle and brought to the hospital. As he slowly recovers from his wounds, Hill falls in love with Natasha. A last-act crisis develops when the hospital personnel are forced to move immediately to Leningrad as the Nazis advance.
