The film also displays distinctive cinematography by Mikhail Gal’per and Sergei Zabozlaev, who went on to work in documentary. As [film historian Sergei] Kraprerev has observed, 'Amerikanka is one of those archival surprises which still await film scholars and film fans.'"--Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive program note, November 20, 2014. 541 0 |3PFA 3500-01-16497. |aD0249 |cpurchase |d 11/19/2014 |5CBPF 546 Russian intertitles, without English subtitles. 590 PFA 3500-01-16497.|aAcetate print.
