Thank you for film suggestions

[Daria Kirjanov]

I would just add a couple more films.  "Broken Promises (2007 or 008) is a British or US film about Russian vory v zakone in London. Most of the characters, as I recall, are British and not American. A very good film but terribly romanticized and too civilized for the subject. Also, Constantine Khabensky (Admiral) did a film in LA with Angelina Jolie in, I believe, 2004. It is a thriller, in which he plays a Russian criminal, I think.  I have not seen the film, but it may fit the rubric.  
 
I look forward to seeing the list.  Daria Kirjanov
