Vasilisa the Beautiful (Russian: Василиса Прекрасная, romanized: Vasilisa prekrasnaya) is a 1940 Soviet children's fantasy film produced by Soyuzdetfilm and directed by Alexander Rou.[1] It was based on a traditional Russian fairy tale The Frog Tsarevna (Vasilisa the Wise), rather than the fairy tale of the same name. It was the first large-budget feature in the Soviet Union to use fantasy elements, as opposed to the realistic style long favored politically.[2][3]
