Hustler is heading up 1978.

[Reza]

............and the next year is?

[Big Magilla]

I addressed the Rublev issue before, probably when we were doing 1969.

According to the DVD liner notes, the film was given a single screening in Moscow in 1966 but was not released to the public. An attempt to show it in Cannes in 1968 was disrupted, but the film was shown there out of competition the following year. It opened in Paris later in 1969 and finally had a Soviet release in 1971.

Andrei Rublev received multiple nominations in the game for the year 1969. Whether or not that was the correct year under our rules, I'm not sure. My understanding is that the film was completed in 66 but shelved by the Soviets for a few years, but right now imdb says it had a "limited release" in the USSR in 1966. Their data seems to change on this film every time I check it though.

Otherwise, fine job tallying Reza & Big Magilla!
