Where to Watch Red Snow
- “Red Snow” (1952) is a low-budget movie about the Indigenous people living near the Siberian border and a Russian plot to develop a devastating new weapon. The story is silly, the script is terrible, and the whole production seems designed mainly to reuse documentary footage from the 1932 film Igloo. Nearly half the movie consists of that earlier footage, while much of the rest shows people sitting around an Air Force base, joking with one another and using cold feet to hit on nurses. There are a few interesting glimpses of Indigenous life, including a traditional wedding, but they are not enough to overcome the weak storyline. The rest of the movie simply is not worth seeing.
