Tracking down quotations: Brodsky and a film reference

Dear SEELANGers,

I apologize for the strange mix of references but I'm trying to track down
quotations for a book translation that not even the author can remember.

The Brodsky reference is:



Перефразируя Бродского - чтобы жить было как-то возможно, но жить было уже
бессмысленно.





The reference to the film, described as a Russian WWII film seen on Russian
TV, says:   Смерть - это только мгновение, как сказал герой одного
кинофильма.

All help gratefully received. Thanks too for previous assistance for
another reference in the same book. I tried to express my appreciation via
SEELANGS but am finding the system tricky on occasion.
