Vasilisa the Beautiful (1939) - is a Soviet film directed by Aleksandr Rou. It was based on a traditional Russian fairy tale The Frog Tsarevna. It was the first large-budget feature in the Soviet Union to use fantasy elements, as opposed to the realistic style long favored politically.

Vasilisa the Beautiful is about a father whose three sons go out to finds themselves brides. Two of the boys come home with perfectly normal girls, but the youngest brother, Ivanushka, brings home a frog from the marshes. His father finds this most curious, but what he does not know was that the frog was actually a beautiful girl named Vasilisa, who was cursed...

VASILISA THE BEAUTIFUL is also known in the west as «The Frog Princess» (as it was titled in the U.S. release of Soyuzmultfilm's ravishing animated cartoon version of 1954). But this 1939 version is LIVE ACTION (b&w) and is utterly enjoyable, and striking in many ways. It is told in the typical, rather crude and straightforward manner of a folk-tale, but is extremely impressive from a visual standpoint. It is fascinating to behold the detailed recreation of a primitive, rural farmhouse, with its distinctive bell-towers and gables all fashioned of timber, basking in the brilliant sunshine and surrounded by vast wheat fields.

The old father who no longer wants to support his two lazy sons instructs them to each shoot an arrow into the air...and where it lands, each will find his new bride. His #3 son, Ivanushka (the youngest and most upstanding of them), finds his bride at the bottom of a lake inside of a big ol' lily pad and takes the frog into his care, in order to honor his pact with his father. And, sure enough, the frog is actually the beautiful and elusive princess Vasilisa, who is then kidnapped by that creepy nemesis of Old Russian lore, Baba Yaga the witch.

Ivan's quest to rescue his bride is told through some pretty impressive live-action imagery, often employing elaborate matte-like effects that combine the actors with what look like ink drawings, plus a few instances of very cool forced-perspective photography, including a stunning sequence where Baba Yaga causes the wooded cliff upon which Ivan is standing to collapse into the ravine far below. The «monsters» themselves are crude--a huge, giant spider that ensnares Ivan and commands that he answer three riddles in order to save his life (a pretty easy-going arachnid, since he gives Ivan multiple guesses when his first answer is wrong), and the giant, Ghidra-like, three-headed dragon (which is planning on marrying Vasilisa!). Crude, but appropriate for this nightmarish fantasy...and the landscape design is continually awesome to the eye…
