=== ''Our Russian Front'' (1942) ===
''[[Our Russian Front]]'' is a 1942 war documentary assembled from {{Cvt|15000|feet}} of newsreel footage taken on the [[Eastern Front (World War II)|Russian front]] by Soviet citizen-journalists during the [[Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union]] in 1941. In collaboration with Dutch filmmaker [[Joris Ivens]], working with The Government Film Service in 1940, Milestone depicted the struggle of Russian villagers to resist the German invasion. Actor [[Walter Huston]] narrated the documentary and composer [[Dimitri Tiomkin]] provided the film score.<ref>Millichap, 1981 pp. 108&ndash;109<br />Canham, 1974 p. 91<br />Barson, 2020: "Milestone collaborated with Dutch director Joris Ivens on Our Russian Front (1942), a documentary (narrated by Walter Huston)"</ref><ref>Silver, 2010: "World War II provided the opportunity to rejuvenate the reputation he had established with All Quiet, but ''Edge of Darkness'', ''The North Star'', ''The Purple Heart'', ''A Walk in the Sun'', ''Arch of Triumph'' (another adaptation of a novel by ''All Quiet'' author Erich Maria Remarque), and, later, ''Halls of Montezuma'' only intermittently tipped the scales in Milestone's favor."</ref>
