The Sword And The Dragon (1960)
"The Sword and the Dragon" (1960) is the Americanized version of the
Russian film "Ilya Murometz" (1956) released by Valiant Pictures and
presented by Joseph Harris and Sig Shore.
The Russian original, was directed by famed fantasy film maker and
animator, Aleksandr Ptushko, and was derived from Russian folklore. It was
reportedly the first Russian film made in Cinemascope and 4-channel stereo
sound.
The Americanized version was released to television in a pan and scan,
mono-only version which nonetheless is fondly remembered by American baby boomers who saw it oft-repeated on "Million Dollar Movie" in the Sixties.
Voice-over actors in the American-version include Marvin Miller and/or
Paul Frees (sources differ) and narration is by well-known news anchor,
Mike Wallace.
I far as I know, "The Sword and the Dragon" is no longer under copyright and there are at least two versions of it on UA-cam, both apparently derived from
the same very poor source. Research leads me to believe there was a version here on the IA which was subsequently deleted around 2008.
This is the reconstructed pan and scan version with new opening credits.
Excellent subtitled Russian editions of many of Ptushko's films, including
this one, are available on DVD from Ruscico/Image.

How fun!
The film in the Soviet box office: Ilya Muromets. It is based on folk legends and tales of the Russian people.
No one wants to hear about ruskies!

What a rip off they end it NOW
I saw the original when I was a child. I love this movie in all its simplicity.
The ending is cut off.
In November 1961 I saw this every day for a week on the million dollar movie on chanel 9
I remember it well.

There's the one with BASIL RATHBONE AND CONRAD VEIDT, but I don't know if the name is THE SWORD AND THE DRAGON. That's why I can't find it, but it is an outstanding movie!!
Its called “The Magic Sword”
THE END IS CUT OFF. WHAT A WAIST OF TIME. AND THERE IS NO DRAGON.
Hey, guys! Don't waste your time here. The whole 25 mins of ending was cut off. If you'd like to see the whole version, go to MOSFILM (МОСФИЛЬМ) channel and find ILIYA MUROMETS (ИЛЬЯ МУРОМЕЦ, 1956). It has GOOD ENGLISH SUBS. The movie was released in Soviet Union in 1956. And altered version was released in US in 1963 as THE SWORD AND THE DRAGON. It's about a brave hero in medieval Russia. I watch it just yesterday and love it.
Thank you dear friend.
Yea, pity about that. But its quite beautiful - a classic hero-folktale. I really enjoyed it. Thanks.
the ending is cut off. Don't waste your time.
Yea. I just found that out.

Thank you:) Here is the full movie, if you are still interested: ua-cam.com/video/GStxgRfo7Ys/v-deo.html
Thanks ..@@michelledinovo6446. Really good to see the ending. What a delightful film. :-)
how greedy they are,
Thanks for the detail explanation/description
why bother to post a movie without the ending? then don't post it!!
saramyshih tzu loveyou You are too unkind. . The poster of this movie segment is doing a public service to introduce the public to this movie with out infringing too much on the copyright holders tolerance.
Please
No, you are right. Don't post a movie with no ending. Why waste people's time.
@@bobbrawley9439 Even if that was the poster's intent, showing a movie with only the end missing is a pretty shitty thing to do. Many people do it, so now I go to the end, with the mute on, and run backwards to make sure credits come up. BTW, trailers are for "doing a public service to introduce the public to this movie without infringing too much on the copyright holders' tolerance".
