Title, basically. I'm looking for some good (preferably fiction) soviet movies I can relax to. Any recommendations?

Bondarchuk’s War and Peace is amazing. Battleship Potemkin is amazing. Strike is amazing (but too long). I always fall asleep during Ivan the Terrible but it’s also amazing. Alexander Nevsky is amazing. Tarkovsky also always puts me to sleep. I love Parajanov but like Tarkovsky he was an anti-Soviet dissident (Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is fantastic and his most accessible film).
